I changed the oil - took well over 5 l of oil out of it (should only have 4.5 I believe) and changed oil filter. I added 4.5L of the correct oil and it is still buzzing when reved. The oil light flashes as normal when you start the ignition, and goes out once the engine starts. As soon as you rev it the light and buzzer start up. Is it electrical? where do I start? want to go camping on tues....

Re: oil pressure buzzer on AAZ help!
Hi
I'm not sure if I can help (you may have sorted it by now), but...
There is tons of stuff out there on this as it is a known dub fault.
First check the sender/switch. Its the pain in the a*** one to get to by the water pump not the bottom one in the sump.
It could of course be the loom and not the switch.
If you have done this and all is good I will happily guide you through the next however many steps/direct you to all the various pages I have found on this.
I'm personally still trying to sort mine at the mo, but I am positive it is the board itself and am experimenting with it to see if I can find a easy fix (I will of course post if and when I do)
Hope yours is just the switch
Si

Re: oil pressure buzzer on AAZ help!

Re: oil pressure buzzer on AAZ help!
Thanks for al the replies!
The problem appears to be at the dash. I poked the 14 track connector and realised I was out cof my depth. But whatever I did worked as it was all good. No buzzer. ... until today when it started again and the glow plug light failed. I need to replace the circuitry at the back of the dash.... I think. Any advice?
