Oil pressure sensor issue
Oil pressure sensor intermittently drops off and comes back. I have oil pressure and this is a relatively new sensor. Temp is good. Pressure is 180 kPa normally and for most driving. Then it just goes erratic intermittently. The video wont upload.

Unfortunately, the sensor is failing again. I replaced mine last year and the new one made it 10 minutes before doing what yours is doing and then finally completely dying. I relocated mine and used a brass Buick sensor and haven't had an issue since.

You happen to have a part number for it?
