Hi Guys,
We recently changed the oil pump because the tappets were knocking a bit. We changed the pump with a genuine renault part(oil pump & filter), the correct oil (according to haynes 15w40). The pressure doesnt go above 0.1 on start or when it's warmed.. it moves a little when you rev it, maybe 1 bar max.
The oil readings before changing the pump were higher, although not great (as specified by haynes and reading what a lot of people have observed on here).. hence pump change. theres no knocking sound and the tappet sound has quietened.. so I assume all is well? maybe a duff sensor?
any ideas?
