Hi guys,
I have a 2012 tiguan TSI 2.0 with 130,000 miles. I get the red low oil pressure stop car warning light intermittently. After maybe 30 min of driving it comes on then right after 3 beeps it goes off.
It started after I took it to the dealer for a oil change. After I left the light went on. Took it back and they changed out oil presure switch/sensor and another oil change. They also said that oil pressure was checked and within spec.
A couple of days after I got a yellow engine warning light and had it checked. It was p0301. So I switched the plug wire 1 with 2 and light went off.
The red oil pressure warning still goes off so i took my tiguan to another mechanic to check oil pressure. He said it's within spec, at the low end but in spec. I asked what could help with this issue and he recommended oil pump and pickup tube. So I had that done. It worked for awhile but now it's back.
I took it back to the place I had the oil pump changed out and they said oil pressure within spec no oil leaks found and can't replicate warning, all good.
If it keeps coming up I may need a new/used engine the mechanic said.
I was driving the car to the store a couple days ago and car wanted to stall, yellow engine warning light went on and off so I had a code reader hooked up to it and it gave my p0304.
So now no yellow engine warning lights but red low oil pressure light comes on after 30 min. or so of driving, it goes on then 3 beeps and off.
Any help is appreciated.
Thank you for your time.
