I was thinking muck in the pressure release valve as the light and guage are on different sensors,
I think?

no i did not think it would cure the problem just a bit of extra protection m8 till hopefully you find the problem,Was this problem there before it was rebuilt spike.i would drop the sump and check the oil pick up filter if you dont find the problem. |

He has taken it back to the garage today,
Does anybody know if the oil pump etc can be accessed without taking the engine back out. (3.2 v6 Auto)
I can phone him with the answer as he's at work. _________________ |

I have the same problem with the same car same engine, and I was wondering if you were able to fix the problem.
I tried to use thicker oil but that didn't work at all.

I had a problem with a triumph engine where the new oil pump had been machined wrongly and the shaft was too short to pick up the distributor drive in the top, so new parts are not immune from being faulty. _________________ Phil
