Hi,
Starting to get sick of this van now! I've just replaced the timing chain kit, oil pump and water pump it was fine for probably two weeks then I started to get oil pressure warnings when going from 70MPH down to stopping at a slip road
I was able to rectify it by turning it off, letting it sit for a minute or two and starting it again, which resolved the issue it only happened twice, but now it's happening regularly where the revs dropping down to 1,500 and below is giving the low oil pressure light the engine and turbo felt extremely warm when I opened the bonnet.
It also used to happen when putting it under load and then stopping but if you drove softly it was fine at 70MPH but it's really worse now.
I just had a new switch today starting to think the crankshaft bearings are knackered; not sure what else to do or test. I assume the crankshaft bearings + shells etc is a huge job and very costly?
