Hey Jim, thank you again, great info by the way. I did bring the car in to get this problem check out and got a oil change, oil pan clean, pick up tube clean last week, after leaving the shop drove a few miles up the road and it came back on. I will get the oil pan drop again and see if there's any thing wrong with the oil pump. The guy did say the oil cooler looks like it's leaking can that be the problem or part of it ? Thanks again.

I also have a 2009 A4 B8...same issues. I am going to replace the pressure sensor, PCV gasket and of course oil and filter. And since our cars didnt come with a dipstick, I'm getting on of those too. But I'm curious, does anyone know if I can get a brush in the oil pan to scrub on the pickup tube screen?..or will i have to drop the pan to do it??

I have a 2003 Audi A4 Quattro 1.8T the turbo pipe on the flexible part the turbo side was leaking, we sorted out the problem but on the side we realised there was a heavy leak after assembling the pipe, we have sorted that one by removing the filter housing and made new threads and fitted it back,the leakage is gone but now its the oil pressure light when I took it for a test drive 1km stopped the engine and bought extra oil to put, the light came off and resurfaced just after 500 m have checked the oil, it is actually over the limit because of the top up that I made. Please help a brother
