Espace oil pressure warning

Sounds nasty! I had similar symptoms with my old Opel Insignia. Turned out the oil pump was failing. Have you checked the oil level and for any obvious oil leakage? What about the oil viscosity – is it the correct grade?

Thanks for the tip! I checked the oil level, and it seems ok. No oil leakage to be found. How did you know that the problem was the oil pump?

Well, my mechanic checked the oil pressure with an oil pressure gauge and it was way too low. Loud mechanical noises from the engine + low oil pressure = defect in the oil pump. I would recommend visiting the workshop.

Thanks for the advice! I took it to the shop, and you were right – the oil pump was defect. They replaced it, and it cost me 755€. Hopefully, it's sorted now!
