  • Todays video was diagnostics on a 2013 VW Tiguan. Kept coming up with a low oil pressure light. I showed how to do a pressure test and change the sensor if that goes bad. If you enjoyed please leave a 👍 thanks!

    I was getting the same oil pressure light. Changed out my pcv valve along with this oil pressure sensor. No problems since. Thanks for the vid.

      Glad I could help! End up having to do a whole over haul on this engine a few weeks ago. Balance shafts failed and engine needed to be rebuilt

      Oh man that's super rough!! This did 100% fix my issue! And was super super easy to take care of! Vids like this are great for people like me where there's only a handful of foreign auto mechanics on my area and they are all booked out for months! Thank you again!

      I would carefully use a pocket screwdriver or a pick to get under the clip and work it lose. Hope that helps.

    The oil pressure sensor works above 1000rpm, the reason why there is no light at startup.
