Hi, I have had the yellow engine light sign on my car when i just drove 500m from work. I stopped, tried to restart & yellow light would appear again and at a stop the car would vibrate. I stopped for 5-10mins, started again...no light but didn't drive it home, just parked it at work. Next day the mechanic came & checked the car, no light all seemed okay. This morning while on my way to work, yellow light came up again, same as before parked it stopped & restarted. Light came in once then gone, called mechanic. While he was looking for the problem, I realised low oil pressure on the gauge under the RPM metre, normally should be at 4 in the middle but it dropped to between 0-1 while the car was static - remember no yellow light at this time.
The mechanic suggests fault with oil pump & replacing it would cost a looot. Bought the car from a dealer in sydney in april this year, serviced 2 months back, not sure what the hell's wrong now..please advise if anyone experienced the same or suggestions on what could be wrong?? Any suggested mechanics for a double check??
