Thanks for this I’ve just got this problem today and thought my car was a goner 👍
Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
great stuff yep have this prob leaking oil but no pressure issues at current time, biggest issue I have is finding fuel pipe and connectors to repair the filter fuel return pipe I broke then changing the filter!
Ouch, Thanks for the great information👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Thank you so much man I thought I was going to have to scrap my car
Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Thanks, going to buy the new oil pressure switch right away!
Good choice! Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Unless that switch was dripping excessively like a drip a second it would not cause a dangerous loss in pressure
I have had them go completely causing total oil loss, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
When you drive and it's hot like over here in Andulucia you loose your oil quick enough. I know because I have a faulty oil pressure switch and I didn't notice it at first. Thought it came from a different place. I going to buy a new one to fix it.
I have a dripping one, with the pressure light for 2 seconds but no cutting out or nothing, think I’m lucky but bought a new one anyways
Hi there. Was wondering if all models would have the green rubber band seal? My cords is leaking oil from this area however when I flicked it open, it actually didn’t have the green seal.
My corsa is a Vauxhall 1.2 2009 model.
If oil is around the connector the switch needs replacing, the green seal is to keep water out of the plug👍🏻👍🏻
I bought my daughter a 2008 Corsa Breeze and shortly after getting it had to replace the Oil Pressure switch (oil everywhere in the engine compartment). All seemed fine but now (started today) the Oil Pressure light has come back on...surely cant be another pressure switch....only been 3 months since the last one...oil levels etc are all correct....any thoughts appreciated.
it is possible, but a common one is the oil filter cartridges collapse, pop it out and have a look Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
My Corsa has all these symptoms. I think I'll try this.
Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
me too.. I need to change this part.. thanks for identifying the part I need to change.. FRF MOTORS SWANSEA charge £99 just to identify ...
Could this cause the engine shudder when stationary?
I’ve had an intermittent oil light and rough idle. Took my Corsa to the garage and they replaced the Spark Plugs and Ignition Coil but this did nothing to fix the problem. Thinking it had been fixed I took the car out and next thing I know there is oil all over my engine and inside of the bonnet and puffs of black smoke coming out the exhaust.
The pressure switch might be leaking unlikely to cause misfire, thanks for the comments 👍🏻👍🏻
Lmaoo you got mugged
Hi , did you ever find the solution to this ?
I have a Vauxhall Corsa D 2008 model and frequently when I start up the car the oil pressure warning light comes on and then goes off after I pull away; I’ve also noticed some oil on my driveway. After checking the oil level I’m about half full. Is this something that would just require a simple top up and switch change? Any help would be greatly appreciated 👍🏻
Try unplugging the the oil switch, if there is oil dripping from the switch it will need replacing, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
aaanton11 thank you! 👍🏻
@@dannyhorton9364 I'm going to try this next, before buying a new oil pressure switch..
Just fitted a brand new oil pressure switch from europarts on my corsa c,and it s leaking oil like the old one would you have any idea what the problem would be please
Faulty sensor take it back, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Would this cause the engine to be extra loud I’ve had the switch change before it’s leaking again but very little oil is still full but the engine is very loud and shaky even when idle
If the engine is loud ie knocking you might have engine damage due to lack of oil or pressure, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
I've overfilled my Corsa C with oil and I need to drain it. I know there's a bolt on sump on the bottom from your other cracking video, but if I can't get at it, will the excess oil drain out through the pressure switch if I loosen the bolt all the way off? Not bothered if it makes the engine a bit oily. CHeers
Not a good idea to remove the oil pressure switch as when you crank or rotate the engine there will be no oil pressure, and it could damage your bearings you would be much better off to just crack off the sump bung and let the required amount out and then put in the bung back in again, if you do it on a high curb it will save you Jacking the car up👍🏻👍🏻Thanks for the great comments 👍🏻👍🏻
@@aaanton11 Great tip about the curb, thanks aaanton :)
Would this cause the oil pressure light to flicker on/off?
+James Proudlock yes it would👍🏻but if the switch is not faulty you could have low oil pressure 😳
aaanton11 so would it be worth changing the switch over first, seeing if that resolves it first? Or would it be worth skipping that stage and going straight to a garage?
+James Proudlock worth changing as they are less than £10 and easy to fit👍🏻
Thanks. 👍🏾
Thanks for the great comments 👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Hello can anyone tell me why my Corsa c z14xe oil pressure switch is at the back of the engine just above the exhaust and not like the one on the video at the front of the engine
different engine, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
How to replace the wire bit
put a new crimp on the end Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Wondering if you could help. I've just bought a 07 corsa club 1.2 from a dealership and literally have had it for less than a week and noticed when I use the clutch and brake together, the oil pressure comes on for a minute. Even smelt a burning smell yesterday. As I've only used it back and forth work, the journey is a lot of stop and start so this isn't good. The car got serviced before I picked it up so not lack of oil and a family member checked it and couldn't see an oil leak. Any idea what could be causing the light to come on?
Sounds more a electrical fault, if the light only comes on when the brakes pressed, you might have a chafed wire above the pedal, or a bad earth, the switches are prone to fail, so change that first and see if the fault is still there 👍🏻👍🏻
These cars eat oil pressure switches.they are SHIT.mine broke on every long journey it did .may aswell buy a box of them
So true 👍🏻thanks for watching 👍🏻
aaanton11 Corsa c got to 100,000 . But got a Yaris now on 140,000 had it 7 months.not one problem
aaanton11 . I've read somewhere that the latest Corsa c (2006) has a better switch better timing chain tensioners too. Not 100 percent sure on this though. The good thing about Corsa is the parts are very cheap and easy to find.toyota parts are hard to find and expensive
The Toyota is so reliable, they don’t go wrong very often, I have never seen one with a leaky oil pressure switch 👍🏻👍🏻
aaanton11 yea they seem to be very reliable.mines a Japanese Yaris too.its got vin number starting jtd. Most now are built in France now I think.annoyingly the person before I had it jacked the car up on it's sil n it's got a rotten hole it.il get it welded soon
Adjustable spanner!Nooo😢😢😢
its a great tool, don't knock it😂 Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
@@aaanton11 ,Anton yes they are great tool if you don't like your knuckles 👊👊
