Oil Light

[MK3JettaGuy]

Hi, I have a 94 2.0 with 195k miles (i know, its HIGH) anyways my question is does anybody have any clue why my oil light is coming on?

This problem only starts when the motor is warm, the oil light comes on until a drop it down a gear and get higher rpms, then it goes off. Checked the oil level when it was cool and everything is where it should be. Any opinions will help! Thanks

i had the same problem. what i did is i replaced the oil pressure switchs and that was about one month ago and i have not had a problem since. and
it never hurts to go ahead and chang the oil while your at it to make sure

What kind of filter are you running?

[MK3JettaGuy]

fram?? thats probably a bad answer but i was really never sure on which filter to use. so if anybody is thinking "wow this guy is a dumbass" sorry!!!

when was your last oil change?

I think the sensor at any rate. there is a slim chance that your oil pump is failing. should be an easy fix.

I've gotten oil lights from certain filters (I always use OEM) but I've never seen a light from a fram. I'm blaming a sensor or wiring.

umm last oil change was about 200 miles ago

I actually just had the same problem i used a fram and then replaced it with a OEM and it went away
