Service Vehicle Soon

[gabro]

Hi All

I have read some threads on this but this is more specific

When the car gets warm, The SVS warning (and the annoying alarm) flashes every time i slow down or lightly accellerate.
I also have a Miss-fire feel when i stop at the lights. The engine is shaky and feels like it will stall when i take off.
There is a distinct Viabration when the Torque converter locks in at low rpm and the engine is under load.

Events went like this.

Performed an oil /fitter change to save money.
3 days later received annoying SVS message.
Inspected oil pressure sensor and found evidence of oil within connecter.
Replaced sensor.
3 days later received annoying SVS message.
This time no evidence of oil.
Checked the filter but still clean.

Any suggestions appreciated.
Have a good day.

You are going to have to get it scanned by a scan tool. The oil pressure sensor is the most common culprit but you already changed. Those cheap bluetooth ones could give you any stored error codes as well.

I had a similar situation with my sv6 it turned out to be the throttle body replaced that and no problem

Hope that helped

If you need someone with a scan tool contact Phreddy from ASR Audio And Electronics 0404 359 144

What happened was the replacement sensor simply failed.
I requested and received a replacement from the ebay dude.
No more service vehicle soon.
BTW I checked out the guts of the faulty sensor and found a IC/Chip which explained why I could not test it with a multimeter.
Thanks for replies.

Bye
