Hi all,
I just went for a spirited Saturday drive in my 06 GTI, and after some hard cornering got the low oil pressure light. Now I checked the oil level before I set off and it was on the low side, but well within the acceptable boundaries on the dip stick. I turned the car off and let it cool for a few minutes. I then drove to the service station and put in a quart of 5W-30 oil, with no warning the entire way. When putting it in I notice a bit of mayo under the oil cap. I put it down to cold winter days and condensation as there is no white smoke and I haven't noticed coolant levels being low. My main issue now is that when driving away from the service station with oil now in the car I gave it a little bit of gas for an overtake and the light came back on. Stopped at the services again and I've got big knocking coming from the engine bay. Any idea what's going on?
