Sorry if this is redundant, but I've missed a few articles in the past
couple of days.
The oil pressure light in my GTI has been coming on for a couple of
weeks now, accompanied by it's incredibly nasty buzzer when above 2000 rpm.
The problem only happens when it's humid or wet outside, and only lasts
until the engine warms up. There's no valve clatter or other noise to
indicate a real problem, though at times it seems the oil temperature is a
couple of degrees higher than normal. (That may be due to the fact that I
normally don't pay much attention to the oil temp, and don't know what
"normal" fluctuation might be.....)
The dealer checked all the pressures, etc. and said they were fine (of
course). Is this similar to your problem? If not, has anyone out there
had trouble like this? Any recommendations?
Mucho thanks,
