Default Re: OIL temp and pressure

yeah ive found out that 1 of the main reasons of engine failure in the vag 1.8t is that sludging blocking the oil pickup is a common problem even with regular oil changes. the problem is that the sensor in the engine only gets worried at a very low pressure, normally before there's no oil going through the bloody thing.

but thanks for the concern
