I'm a mk5 gti owner, I recon its pick up pipe filter blocked, while the sumps off to clean it look into doing the balance shaft delete I did the poor man's balance shaft delete with my grinder been running perfect for 2 years
Its usually a blocked oil pick up pipe on these. looks like your dropping the sump. The other weak point is the balance shaft seizing up. But that would kill your engine.
@@usuallybrokencars while the sump is off fit a vis motorsport balance shaft freewheel for extra piece of mind not cheap but worth doing. Also check the cam follower on the high pressure fuel pump. If that wears through its a new pump and inlet cam. Its really cheap to do. Bad follower maintenance means bits of follower in the sump which in turn block the pick up pipe 👍🏻
Had my gti nearly 3 yrs now and managed to get all the weak points finally sorted on it. Funnily enough mines a 2006 silver 5 door 😂 mines a stage 1 mapped manual though.
Impressive for the money! It’s a nice place to be, and those seats are great 👌
They are lovely 😍

Ahhhh cool! Will definitely have to look into that! Cheers
Blimey, what handsome men and another great video
Thank you kindly my G. Only half as handsome as you!
Great video buddy. I used to have a mk5 GTI with dsg, it had a Revo stage 1 map for the engine and box, made a world of different.
Very cool! Thanks man. I think I will definitely be doing that soon!
Hopefully a cheap fix again. Was going to say sensor or a bit of muck in the pick up pipe. Would definitely do the sensor first and go from there.
I'm getting alot of that! So I'd better get one ordered!
The mk 5 gti is such a beautiful car especially sliver take care of her regardless of the damage it has already
Thank you! I will be getting the body work done soon!
Excellent result, hats off! 👍 and hopefully just a sensor for the oil pressure 🤞
Thanks, always work to do on a project and never a dull moment!

@@andydunn1878 I have thought about doing a manual and dsg back to back comparison 🤔. Where are you based?
Lovely car bud
Thanks 👍
Still looking like great value. Hoping the problem is just a sensor. 🤞awesome series tho!
Fingers crossed! Thanks mate!
Hi guys this happened on my sons gti was low oil but light stayed on after top up ended up being bonnet switch fault
How bizarre 🤔, good information to know though.
The edition 30 is a 2.0 tfsi 230 bhp
Thank you mate! Do you know what turbo it runs?
@@usuallybrokencars I believe it is a K04. We actually owned 001… the very first registered edition 30 which was the media demo car. Lovely cars
Thats super cool 😎. Always nice to own a piece of history!
Gotta be a sensor I reckon
Well we will find out soon enough!
My moneys on a dodgy/dirty sensor!
Fingers crossed mate! Let's hope for an easy fix!
Right, so….
Hahahhaha I know ........ I can't help myself

Thank you! I'm loving it!
