Contaminated oil, eh? What makes you think that? What were your symptoms like and how did you diagnose the oil contamination?

Mine exhibited similar symptoms – the oil pressure light illuminated intermittently. I suspect you've exceeded the maintenance interval, leading to oil sludge and subsequent oil contamination. The only definitive way to know for certain is to have a mechanic inspect the oil. It’s advisable to seek professional assistance promptly to mitigate potential engine damage.

I took your advice and got it looked at. You were spot on! The oil was indeed contaminated due to exceeding the maintenance interval. It cost me 165€, but at least it's sorted now. Thanks for the help!

I see you're experiencing oil pressure issues. The oil pressure warning lamp lighting up is cause for concern. Is it possible your engine oil has become contaminated? I drive a Skoda Praktik too, and I encountered a similar issue some time ago.
