Skoda Praktik oil level sensor issue

I'm getting a persistent oil level sensor error on my 2008 Skoda Praktik diesel. The speedometer displays an error message, and the error memory confirms a faulty sensor signal. Annoyingly, the oil pressure warning lamp illuminates too. I suspect a defective cable or plug connection. Has anyone else experienced this? Seems like it will be about 95€ to resolve.

Sounds similar to a problem I had with my Praktik. The oil light kept coming on. Have you checked the simple things like the sensor connector? Could be loose or corroded.

Did you also get a specific error message related to the oil level sensor? And did the oil pressure warning lamp light up as well?

Yes, the oil level sensor error was the main message. And yes, the oil pressure light flickered sometimes too, which was worrying. I'd get it checked professionally if I were you.

Thanks for the confirmation. You were spot on. It was indeed a faulty sensor connection. 95€ later and the error is gone. Appreciate the help!
