Originally posted by TattootroyI got the oil pump warning yesterday morning and this morning. In this now very cold weather. It came on for a few seconds then went. Shut engine off, restart the warning didn’t came back. Seems my seal needs changing too.
Does any one know if insignia 2011 with engine:A20DTH, Af40 gen2 year 2010 and upwards automatic transmission has the cut out for the hard to reach bolts?

jack car up
bottom engine cover off
drivers side wheel off
hub nut off
driveshaft and intermidiate shaft off plug where it goes into gearbox so you dont lose gearbox oil
exhaust frontpipe off
couple of wiring connectors off at rear of sump
dipstick out
undo sump nuts
i used pry points at front of sump and gearbox to split seal on sump
put new oil pickup seal on clean all mating faces 3mm bead of rtv
put it all back together !

Does any extra work need to be carried out prior to accessing the sump ie removing subframe or anything? Also, if cutouts have been made previously, will they be visible from under the car? I have just bought a 2010 (59 plate) 2.0 cdti and am receiving this error message on first start up. Garage quoted me between 7.5 And 10 hours labour so not gonna be a cheap job.

Hello,
My car didn’t yet had the low-pressure warning.
I let my garage sort it out as a precaution and due to my car doesn’t have the precut holes in gearbox.
Total cost: 7000 SEK, about 600 GBP
Insignia Bi-Turbo 2012, F40 manual gearbox
11 4000km, about 70 000miles
Regards
Niklas

Might want to start a new post about your problem and it helps also if you introduce yourself and let people know some details about your car etc-------Dave

You could have the end caps removed and inspected for signs of wear

All depends on how long you have been running it for with the warning coming on .
Though saying that when mine started doing it , I ran it for about a month , but I got rid if it .

Hey lads, I haven't seen any warning message about low oil on the dash, but when plug in the op-com and monitoring engine, at the "oil pressure switch" position it says "low". Is it normal as should be, or this is the first sign? Anyone have seen any other data for this position? Like "ok" or "normal" or "high"?
By the other side, position "oil pressure sensor" is showing 192 kpa at idle. A bit confusing for me...
Also does anyone has experience to fit the metal upgraded seal sold on ebay by a polish man, I can see more that 400 pcs are sold, so people trust it, I presume. I would think to upgrade, rather just to swap rubber seals... What do you think?
Safe drive to all!
