[Talidan]

@Talidan Whats the spec of the new car?

I've no idea haha don't think it's got anything tbh what are the options I know it's got 10 speaker system and auto lights and wipers and duel zone climate but that's all standard I think ?

Wheels,
Sunroof,
Folding mirrors,

Any mods so far, intake etc...

Also what plans for mods do you have?

In that case it's got nothing then we'll I don't think not had a good look at it haha the blue tinted glass is quite nice though belive it came on 05 cars only and no plans as such still saving up ideally i wanted a 3 door dsg edition 30 will just be minor cosmetic things and a stage 1 rtech map it's got a pre cat delete will probably need a clutch at some point think it's still on standard clutch

Bad news drove 100 miles it was boosting fine engine nice and quiet and pulled up my road and stop engine low oil pressure warning and It only does it if you take it over 2k I have realised so I don't really want to drive it.

Oil pressure switch?

I'm inclined to think it may be the oil pick up pipe help needed asap  :(

Red low oil pressure light means turn it off and don't you start it again until the oil pan is removed and you've cleaned or someone cleans out the oil pick up pipe strainer or puff goes the engine  didn't you test drive it properly or do you think you've been stiffed with a dud car by your pal?.

Good luck

Right update got my dad to come pick it up on his recovery truck this morning and took it down to his garage, as suspected oil pickup clogged up with sh*te and lots of sh*te in bottom of the sump, so after a good half a hour cleaning both they came up like new also fresh oil and filters and now it's running really smooth sounds much better on idle and most important I have done a hard 60 miles and no oil pressure warning so happy

That looks nasty mate.

Thank goodness for that you got to the bottom of the oil light and problem solved 

Happy driving and modding of you do

make sure you get an exhaust for better breathing as the map will see you right with one.
