Intermittent oil pressure issue warning light malfunction tear down inspection shop repair diagnosis estimate Failure common problem Quattro
Yes, please. I'd like to see an oil pressure video, especially the role the balance shafts play in distributing the oil. Purpose of the screens on them?
I'd love to see another oil pressure video on the 2.0T!
I've got low oil pressure at idle after engine is hot 🔥. Engine was just rebuilt. No one in Canada knows how to fix these engines. Thank man!
what was the solution?
I had the same problem. Good oilpump no pressure
That was exactly the warning i was getting on my dash a month ago (i left a similar comment on one of your last videos ;), I'm new to Audi so whenever I have an issue i will research it until there's nothing left to research, which is why your videos are such a valuable resource for me (I do all my own mechanic work because i like to understand everything about my vehicles so that i can diagnose any potential issues easily). In my case the warning came on suddenly so i pulled over and shut off the engine right away, i checked and had lots of oil, no noticeable or audible change in engine noise so i limped it home (I was only a half mile from home) seemed the warning would only come on when stopped at a light with low rpm so i would shut off the engine until i was able to move again. when i got home i did extensive research, then checked the engine while it ran at idle, discovered it was really difficult to open the oil cap (tremendous vacuum pressure) which isn't normal, so i did more research based on that, one thing that was recommended to check was the PCV valve cap to see if there is any damage to the diaphragm, so i figured it would be simple enough (so i ordered a replacement cap as they usually break when removed, $20 on amazon), sure enough there was a tiny half inch tear in the diaphragm, received the replacement cap, installed it, and to my great relief it ran perfect after that, put on about 2000kms since and the engine is still running strong and no warnings. So for me from now on I'm always going to check the PCV valve first.
check this guy out, he talks about a lot of audi problems to czcams.com/video/NTXW6AiM_oc/video.html, he might be able to help
@@customcars5628 I have, I don't have any oil consumption problems at all actually, in fact my a5 burns/consumes less oil then any car i've ever owned, which is a little surprising, but thanks for the suggestion.
Im missing my oil cap gasket 🤦🏽♂️😂
Funny timing is that it's two years later and I saw your oil pressure switch fail short. haha Great vid!
for me i was very lucky. I got the flashing oil pressure light while I was driving home. Car operated at normal speed and sound, no clattering, drove home since I was a few blocks away. Checked oil level and it was fine but my oil was pitch black. I was afraid that the worse had happened but I did research and found that dirty oil and filter can cause a red oil pressure. Did a motor flush with oil change and drove around a few blocks no oil light!
Hello from Canada! Recently came across your channel and loving it! Thank you for the content! I'd love more info on oil pressure. Original owner of a 2013 A4 Quattro, S-Line with about 225000 KM (~139800 mi). She's been doing amazing. Fortunate to have no major problems, no breakdowns. A coolant leak has developed and I'll be checking it out this weekend. Looks like I might have a new water pump in my future if the pattern you've observed holds true for my car. ;) Thanks again and keep it up!
Is there any specific place in Indy you recommend to work on the 2.0t?
I struggled with oil faults on my A4 caeb. Replaced everything i could get to easily. The engine did not sound like it was low on oil but on guage was on low side. Would get a random epc soon as the rpms hit 3700. Figured it had to be balance shafts (as i looked at everything else) and the fact they spin at twice engine speeds. Maybe twice as much wear? Pulled shafts and although the screens was clear and I couldn’t feel any roughness. New shafts fixed it. I no longer get epc. They also say once you pull them they have to be replaced.
I'm having the same issue with my 2.0 Q5. What other things did you replace before the shafts? Were you having some vibration at idle? I've replaced the sender switches and the pressure control valve. Anything else before moving onto the shafts? Oil pump maybe? Thanks!!
I’d love a video about going more in depth on the oil pressure stages. Your videos are very intriguing. Also I love your tool videos! You know you’re a mechanic when you can nerd out on some nice tool’s because you need many different specific tools. Keep up the tool videos man love to see your uploads
@NaptownTuner try a 0-60 psi gauge. Most pressure I've have seen on my mechanical gauge setup is 55 @6000pm. Idle pressure on these cars is low (to low in my opinion) The trigger low pressure switch at 14 psi and scare the crap out of you. I believe a lot of the timing chain and cam component wear comes from low pressure low flow at idle but that's a whole topic on its own. Have a Q5 started just tripping warning hot at idle but it has a failing HPFP and is putting fuel in oil lowering the viscosity.
Oil pressure videos on these are so helpful as it seems to be common but could be so many things. The last one was really good when it was the Chinese oil pump and you showed checking other stuff along the way.
the oil pressure testing gauge you have is working just fine, your gauge you got is for diesels my guy. at idle the spec oil pressure is (1.2-2 bar) at 2k rpm (1.6-2.2bar) at 3700 rpm(3.0-4.0bar) i.e low stage and high stage oil pump. currently diagnosing the same issue rn on a flexfuel 2.0t tfsi
No that’s the standard harbor freight cheapest oil pressure gauge and it didn’t work. Purchased a snap on gauge since then and it works great. Gas and diesel oil pressure isn’t that much different
The pump itself doesn't run in 2 modes, it's the solenoid above the pump that controls the pressure.
Nothing more frustrating than test tools that don't read correctly! Good luck see you in the next video!!
I would love to see a more in-depth oil pressure video.
Would love a oil pressure video. Why do they vary the oil pressure? Why don’t they just run at high pressure all the time. If the sensors or pressure control valve fail they fail to high pressure. There are three different oil pressure set points. 1 is at idle 12psi-18psi. 2 at 2000 psi. 3 is at like 54 at 4000 psi (i think for turbo oil supply).Is there a way to use the highest oil pressure all the time?
Love to see oil pressure video pump etc
My vw cc 2.0tsi has an oil pressure light, came on right after the car told me it needed serviced. Could flushing the car over time with mmo help? i was going to run 4 quarts oil 1 quart marvel mystery oil, and do that 2x. and check the oil for metal
Yes to the oil pump/ supply video, please.
Also the easiest way, but not the most thorough to check at least one of the cams in the back is take off the PCV and it'll give you a direct top view of one at least as I recall...
Well that should have a scale to max 10bar for higher resolution not 35, its almost a diesel compression tester gauge!
I do these all the time and Half the time when the low oil pressure light comes on is because the Crank case valve diaphragm breaks and creates excessive Vacuum in the crankcase . this vac prevents the pump from drawing oil efficiently and causes low oil pressure. 🤘🤘
VAG 1342 is 0 to 230 psi... a bit more sensitive.
I was one of them ppl who kept driving, because the error msg was a little different... shut off the engine and check OIL LEVEL.. and I was right after a damn service so I knew there was enough oil !!! Few weeks later 'the beeping' got worse.. I should prob sell it now?
Heck yeah I would like a oil pressure lecture on that motor I have a 2013 B8.5 with only 70k mi and I’d like to get another 100k out of it.. please provide as much details as you know to keep the oil flowing through the rings and keeping normal oil working pressures on that TFSi thanks..
Buy a gauge with another scale, 5 bar at maximum will give you better reading's.
Will be good to see an oil pump video and how they compare to the earlier ea113 hex key pumps. Do these suffer the same failure?
Oil Pressure Video .. lets have it .. .Plz ..great info Neptown .. yea . .I wanna do a balance shaft delete. Im running a FSI motor in a B7 A4.
Hi. Tommy here from South Africa @ Kruger Park. I just bought a 2006 A4 B7 2.0tfsi. I've been trying to find a video where it shows how the car's ideling is supposed to sound when its 100% but no luck. For me it sounds like mine has oil starvation but the dipstick shows full. Allot of tikking noise coming from the head. Also the brake pedal is very hard with almost no brakes.
I got dame after oil light on hard brakes and no braking at all seems tandem pump damage how did it work out for you I'm taking sump off this weekend check oil pump x
Off subject , but can you do a video on checking the timing chain stretch with VCDS for an A4 B8.5
Mine need a new oil pump at 225.000km after 11yrs ...
Measured pressure first, was low at idle but within spec when at higer rpm's.
snap on oil psi gauge works well and reaches to the driver door to sit and rev
Yes, please show us an in depth oil pump / oil supply video or ten!
I would like to see a video on if you can switch your plastic intake manifold to the updated metal one and if so what all is involved
The two sensors brown n blue are they low and high pressure
Hello my audi a4 b8 1.8 show low oil pressure in low, show code p0341, New rings, metals, cylinders were rectified, head service, new oil pump, new n428 pressure regulating valve, new vvt, 2 oil bulbs, head check valve, vvt adjuster magnet, new and updated chain tensioner, and continues low pressure assist. Please could you guide me what else could be failing. Thank you very much luck!
Unless something was done wrong or still need to check balance shafts and oil pump if oil pressure reads low
1 vote here for an oil pressure specific video please, thanks!
yes, oil pressure video
I need to confirm similar issues on my Seat Leon 1.8 TSI
Keep up the great videos brother! I am learning a ton!
Yes, oil pressure video, pls.
Btw do audi oilpumps have hexacon axle problems as well ?
thank you. dealing with something like this.
What’s the sounds of a bad turbo on a cold start .?
Any shifter bushing recommendations for manual transmission?
🇨🇦✌️🥰
Hi thanks for the video. I have 2012 I replaced 2 oil pressure sensors & changed oil plus filter. The oil still on. Can you tell me what to do? Thank you
I know this is a year late but this is for others researching the issue and in case you have not resolved the issue. The guy here has lots of info but he also lacks lots of info. He does not talk about the oil control valve on the bottom end of the engine. Not suggesting anyone to be a parts changer but I have found a correlation between this control valve and the top 2 oil pressure sensors. It seems they all have to be working properly in order to regulate between high and low oil pressure. Therefore, I would suggest changing all 3, as my research and experience have led me to conclude one of the reasons for the infamous oil pressure issue on this car is electronic and not mechanical. I hope this helps someone out there. Amazing that I don't see anyone detailing this secret
I’m dealing with the red oil pressure warning light right now. Oil pressure on cold start is 4.0 bar. Once it get to operating temperature it drops down to .6bar. Manual says 1.1bar at idle. It’s fresh rebuild engine with new bearings and oil pump. Could the balance shaft be the issue?
I have exactly the same issue, did you find problem? I've got 0.5bar at hot idle
@@tipptop9 balance shafts
@@javiercruzvelasco3957 what exactly was wrong with the balance shafts? Did you have any chunks or evidence in the pan? Did you have the little screens in or out of your balance shafts? I've got no glitter or anything in my filter or oil pan, its all extremely clean. The only thing I did find was a broken drain back valve which is part of the oil filter housing/cap. I think oil pressure is escaping back into the pan though that drain back valve, causing the switches (and my gauge) to see low oil pressure in the filter housing. I've ordered the part with vw, its an updated part which is now in 2 pieces, a much more stout looking drain back valve and a new filter cap that must go with it. I hope this solves it for the customer, he's had 2 oil pumps and lots of other stuff replacing by another shop with no success!
Hello there ! I bought a 2015 vw jetta with 1.8 l tsi bought the car with bad engine w bent valves i repleced all 16 pc put with seals new timing chain kit put tham together i start engine and i had the oil lite on that schared me and i steal not happy wit it since i cant get the yellow reed check engine lite off i deednt worry much on Vacum and such since engine run fine but the oil lite steal on i am afraid to run the engine I was all over on you tube some folks say i must have the screen washed in balance shaft s or in advanced intake cam , i dont know why but upper cocer and can journals where littlebit ruff i send it off with girt four hundred sandpaper , got off for ok smoot . Anyway first of all i deedn't had screen in cam bridge so thats out of issue I checked the magnetic pressure valve also at end of adjustabole Camshaft was ok cleen so here i am waiting someone help or adwise What else i can or should doo!???? Other than that ! The earlier vw Passats i had problem with Wacum that not easey case if rear main seal wore out than comes all kind of missfireing and codes . Oh and on my jetta i was talking about start oil pressure was trirty five lb than went down at lower idol around 725 or so to 25 lb .so the oi pump pushes ok i forgot to say i pulled one rood bearing out and the bearing sell was ok shape .Also cleaned bottom pan that was not bad .I deednt check piston pressure yet not sure compressio ok . that can couse lower pan pressure vacum caois too i gess . please comment here or at my e mail too ! Thanks and thanks for the video. gmoorp@gmail.com
ps ! I wish vw and audi dealer had a free mechanc advviser so we can solve there bad designed lemon's cars ! :) I pats around vw - since 1975 and i ran in to all kind of problems . Affter all i had lots of fun having at list 50 vw-s
Hello there. I have inquestion.
Audi A5 2.0 tfsi when it s turned off it appears the message “oil pressure too low turn of the engine”
But my engine is off. How is that? Do you know?
I have seen oil pressure problems many times with this engine. Usually the pressure will be in spec until the engine is very hot and idling. Very rare for the oil pump to fail. When oil pressure is out of spec at higher rpms, usually the last mechanic screwed something up.
It’s usually the oil pump or balance shafts,.
on a real oil pressure concern with this engine.
A real oil pressure concern will be consistent every time the oil warms up and thins out, oil pressure is escaping past worn parts in this case. I’ve already got a video where a oil pump fixed a oil pressure issue.
@@NaptownTuner I am not a dealer tech so I only can speak for mostly out of warranty vehicles. I believe I have seen a bad oil pump but the shaft or something had play. It was obvious. When I see bad balance shaft, the engine is basically locked up. I don’t know if the oil screen in the balance shaft causes a pressure problem first. It is usually tool late when I see it.
Most oil pressure issues I see can be from oil separator having a leak, cam bracket oil screen and I have seen the ball valve bust out of the bracket. Sometimes the oil pressure switch has a leak. But for real the best fix for high mileage is proper oil and a lack of idling.
Police cars live idling more than driving, just curious why you think that’s bad. Are you taking about cold starts also I’ve replaced locked up balance shafts a few times and been fine so far
I am talking hot idling. Police cars are way different story. Cold starts usually have good oil pressure.
The newer 2.0 idles at a lower oil pressure and thanks to start stop we don’t idle as much. Problem solved.
@@stevenfarley6909 I can tell you know your stuff but I’m still interested if more people think idling is bad, honestly never heard anyone make that point. Very Cold starts on thick oil idling to warm up is worse than idling your car at operating temperature in my opinion
Hey, I need help, my car has a low pressure issue only during low rpm. I have replaced the oil pump, balance shaft and N205 valve and it's still giving me the issue.
Interested in seeing the oil pressure video.
the oil light shouldn't come on when we turn the key?
perhaps with all the engine swaps you're doing you can comment about which 2.0l engines can be swapped back or forward to the car or engine your addressing
My Audi a4 B8 2.0tdi has the same Problem . Every 300-600 KM lamp Start up and after 30 sec is off. Went to Service and they didn't find any Problems. Could it be a Problem with the sensor? Becuse the oil pump is only 20 000 km old.
I need that video man! Hope you do it!
In depth oil pump and supply
Does the 2019 2.0 carry all the same issues known to this engine or were they fixed ?
Pretty sure they fixed the common problems such as bad piston rings and chain tensioner (?)
Well for timing and rings I would say it is fixed but they changed the turbo wastegate and the thermostat/water pump. I have seen these updated designs fail. Other engine issues are relatively inexpensive like coolant valve or I/m position sensor. One odd thing I have noticed with the new 2.0 is I see more wires getting chewed up by mouse in back of engine.
@@stevenfarley6909 how are the newer diesels compared to the newer petrol engines? Any common problem on those as well?
@@lindell8057 I do not see a lot of diesels. Usually i4 diesels I see in vw and Audi I see v6 diesel. Usual problems are some exhaust emission thing but I am no expert.
Hello, I am in Indy. Do you have a fee to come out and diagnose a 2010 Audi A5 2.0t?
In depth oil,p vid. Yes please 👍
Please oil pump video thanks!
lets see that oil passage/feed video good sir!
I will like to see an indepth oil supply video
Oil flows through cams last on the 2.0?
Do the oil pressure video. Naptown the goat...
Yes please low oil pressure on a TSI CCTA
Would you consider being my volkswagen auto group mechanical consultant?
Exactly how I thought this vid might go, haha. I hate this LIGHT!
Hay man. My audi is only showing low oil pressure on low revs (800) if you rev it up the light shuts of. Oil pump seems to be working fine on both its stages..no loud sounds or anything. Checked everything i can think of and changed both sensors..any advise please?..tensiones also both fine
Do you have any solution? I have same issue.
Perhaps a faulty oil pressure switch on the upper oil pan?
Oil pressure regulation valve. Worth swapping if you have one. I didn’t this time. So far I haven’t known that to ever cause an issue but someone can always let me know what they have seen. It’s similar the the oil control valves for camshaft adjustment on the v engines. I’ll talk about it more if people want a better video.
This time I think it was just a switch, I’ve seen that more often than not but the balance shafts seems to be the big one if the cam screen is already popped out.
Make a timing chain install video
yeah, I think I messed up my 2.0 TFSI BWE engine, I bought it over a week ago, 5 days later I get a low oil pressure lamp, but I was so close to home, normally I would have stopped, but I was so close I thought I could make it, dumb dumb idea, it sounded normal and felt normal for a bit, but as I pull into my house it changed sound and now it sounds like a diesel. I found a used engine, but it was a BGB engine, I called audi and asked if it was similar, and he told me it was identical, so bought it, I hope I can just swap parts for what I need, but I am afraid I need to swap the whole engine. if that is the case. and I suspect its the oil pump that sized up or something, what should I do to prevent the "new" meaning used oil pump from doing the same?
Ohh yeah, Fixed the car btw, was a clogged oil pickup, and I had to replace the turbo because it died, however, by the amount of oil that was in the intercoolers it was about to go out on me anyway so I guess it did not matter too much. But now, I got a low oil pressure lamp again -_- afraid it might be the same issue since it happened shortly after my first service after the repairs. I bought an oil pressure gauge like you have there and a new sensor hoping and praying it's just a sensor. also, what is the pressure supposed to be on the BWE engine? anyone know?
oil pump video please!
Hi yes please oil pressure video
Another vote here please, need that oil pressure issue vid like i need cake (cause calories are my friends.) thanks!
Oil pressure video
this is probably a stupid queston but when you top off the coolant do you top it off to max line or do you top it off to in between max and min when the engine is cold?
To the full line it’s possible it could overflow and cause a smell some people might think is a leak so always better to slightly under fill or to the line
@@NaptownTuner thanks, my a4 is slightly under minnimum right now and i can't find any noticleble leaks so I am going to top it off for now and just keep an eye on it. I do suspect that waterpump thermostat housing is the culprit if it is leaking though. I undestand that really small leaks can be haard to see sometimes and not in spots you can see from the top of the engine.
Yeah oil pressure video pls
let's see that video!
Yes oil pressure video

TSI engine. Not TFSI.
Do you know the difference
tFsi has flex fuel bs… close to identical but different Engine from TSI dude.
