Re: Low oil pressure questions/solutions

Replaced the oil pump this weekend but still have the same problem, I don't know what else to do or where to look now. Oil pump was a long shot but it was the next logical step I believe. Any suggestions? Very discouraged havnt heard of anything like this, i feel like a guinea pig.

Re: Low oil pressure questions/solutions

Loosen/ take off sub frame bolts, lift engine a bit and a pry bar-Not fun, I did it the first time but the same thing happened again so it's at a shop now. Yea the sensor is good I'm pretty sure. The psi is ten at idle but it stays at ten when revved/under pressure
