Right guys, oil warning light is on. Seems to be constant now, but when it started used to be fine when i started driving and come on later.
There's new oil and filter in there, still got the light on.
Could it be:
Dodgy connection?
Dodgy Oil Pump?
Dodgy pressure sensor?
Temperature seems to be an issue, I guessed it was related to the oil being knackered, but new oil makes no difference...

put an oil pressure guage on to show the real value, if it's less than 25 then the pressure sender is working.. .
I'd be seriously thinking about taking the engine out..
