Hi
Can anyone help me with a newby with a problem I am having with a 2000 Polo 1.4SE.
In normal use the dash will sudenly start to sing and the oil warning light comes on. If I continue driving the engine shuts down.
Switching off and on again clears the fault.
I have looked at the pressure switch which seems to switch properly, but the wire does nothing! If I disconnect it the warning light stays off and the engine runs, if I ground it the warning light stays off and the engine runs.
Help!

Mmmm , I would still try changing the switch, cheapest option before looking further.
