Taurus :: Tire Pressure Alert Popped Up (Solid Coin)

The wifes 2010 taurus popped up a tire pressure alert and she took it to our tire guy and he added some nitrogen, but didnt get rid of the alert. It is a solid icon, not blinking.

So we took it to the Ford dealer and they went around and checked the pressure.

Then two guys got into the car three times, and we could see the seat going back and forth. What the heck?

Well the 3rd time fixed the alert. I am sure they know of some button sequence to do this. Is it a secret diagnosis you can bring up?

Ford - Taurus :: Oil Pressure Light Comes On When Engine Heats Up And RPM Fall Below 1500 Or At Idle

I have a 2000 Ford Taurus V6 DOHC w/170K miles. When engine heats up, oil pressure light comes on, but only when RPM fall below 1500 or at idle. There is a burnt smell sometimes after driving the car. I do not see froth or coolant in the oil. Car burns a little oil, but no more than it has been for the last 50K miles. Just had oil and filter changed 300 miles ago; I was using 10W-30 but I believe the mechanic used 5W-30. (Also, if I drive more than 45 minutes, the "low coolant" light comes on-- however, the engine is not overheating, and the radiator/reservoir are full.) What part(s) I should order first? Oil pressure sensor? Oil pump? (If at all possible, I need to repair myself, as I simply cannot afford my mechanic's hourly rates right now.)

Celica :: No Oil Pressure At OCV VVTL Sensor

I connected in a Y fitting at the VVTL oil pressure sensor, attached a good quality mechanical pressure gauges and found I am getting no pressure at this point ... therefore, no lift. I put on another Y fitting at the pressure sensor by the oil filter and found the oil pressure is factory spec (20 psi at idle and 75 psi at 3000 rpm)

I pulled apart the VVTL OCV, checked the filter (OK) and checked to see if there was anything that would cause problems ... nothing obvious I have oil pressure in the engine - there appears to be oil circulating in the top end of the engine as there is a lot of oil up there but no oil pressure at the OCV

Golf VI R :: CEL / Tire Pressure Sensor Came On

Yesterday, my wife took my car to LA and the CEL came on and stayed on (it's not blinking). It doesn't seem like anything is really wrong with the car other than the light being on. My wife says it seems to be running fine since the CEL came on.

Then this morning, my wife turned on the car and the check tire light came on, but then went off. Last week, I had my new rims (19x.8.5) and tires (235/35-19) installed, so I guess that could have something to do with it. My wife checked the tires and there's nothing wrong with them.

I want to figure out what the heck is going on with my R (sucks that all this started happening the one time my wife took the car out of town....Murphy's law I guess). I have an APR stage 1 tune, and want to avoid potential issues with a punk dealership in LA. Consequently, I'd like to try to figure out what is going on with my VAG-COM before I take it to the dealer.

Here are my questions:

1. Could my new rims and tires have caused the CEL to come on and stay on? Seems unlikely, but since the check tire light started acting up, I though they might be related.

2. Is there a way to scan my car with VAC-COM to figure out what is causing the CEL?

Passat (B5) :: 1999 - Location Of Oil Pressure Sensor?

My in-dash sensor is going off, beeping three times, flashing for three more, then off. Oil level is fine. I am unsure about how to check oil pressure, and am interested in determining if the sensor is bad. How do I go about doing this? (1.8T, 1999).....

Corolla / Matrix 2009-13 :: Oil Leaking At Or Near Pressure Sensor

I am looking at a 2013 S 1.8 with 38k miles... it seems to have oil leaking at or near what looks like the oil pressure sensor, but i have struck out finding a picture of one in place on the engine.

The oil stain is above and behind the harmonic balancer at a sensor that sticks straight out towards the firewall and looks like the oil pressure sensor.

The engine has not been washed and there are no other stains above it. I am more than capable of changing the sensor... if that is what it is. Is this a cause for concern?

Gen 2 Prius :: 2007 - Tire Pressure Sensor Light Came On

I've got a 2007 Prius and the tire pressure sensor light came on long ago and won't reset. My tires are properly inflated. Rather than to keep speculating I figured I could use the Mini VCI to see if any codes or information come up.

Touareg :: 2004 V6 Will Not Start - Pressure Sensor Low Or Flat

Noticed the fan running a lot louder then normal. Tire pressure sensor keeps saying it is low or that it is flat. checked air in all put air in all and still get that tires are low. Got a check engine light the other day then it went off. Went to start it today and wouldn't start. all lights come on on the dash gauges move except the battery gauge. Jump started it and she started got to the house and it wouldn't start. So i am thinking it is the battery or could it be the ecu? or the alternator? The lights on the dash weren't dimming when trying to start now i get nothing. Never had computers problems with it since i bought it. Been the same battery since it was purchased.

Golf/GTI VI :: Get Tyre Pressure Sensor Wire Through Firewall?

Trying, to retrofit the TPMS 'clearing' button for the system that uses ABS. Easy enough to fit the button, but need to run a wire to the ABS module. Took out the glovebox/cubby hole hoping it would reveal where the main wireharness goes through the firewall, but there is a big plastic unit behind the glovebox. It would have made life easier as the ABS is right in front of the glovebox but guess I'll need to take another route.

Golf IV R32 :: Small Oil Pressure Sensor Sending Unit

Looking for a "small" sending unit that works with an electrical gauge. When I mean small I'm talking smaller than 2 inch diameter and 3.25 inches long.

I have a sending unit with those dimensions and would like something more compact if at all possible. The range needed would be 0-100psi.

Silverado :: Getting Code P0523 - Engine Oil Pressure Sensor?

When my check engine light came on I hooked up the tool to see what code I would get. This is the code I'm getting which indicates a problem with the engine oil pressure sensor/switch circuit high voltage.

Question 1: is this a simple fix and about how much do you think this would cost at a Jiffy Lube or Walmart type place?I'm also concerned because the MIL is no longer on. I'm wondering if I could have cleared it off using the tool. This morning the engine light was no longer lit and my oil pressure guage is reading no pressure at all now.

Question 2: could it be possible to have no pressure? or like the code indicates it's just a matter of the sensor not reading the pressure?

Question 3: is it safe to operate the vehicle? I'm not going to have any money in my budget for at least another month.

Sierra :: Fuel Tank Pressure Sensor - Code P0453

I have the code P0453 set and believe I need to replace the fuel tank pressure sensor. I have the part and want to know if this part can be replaced without removing the fuel tank. There is a video on youtube that shows replacing the part by lowering the tank with a transmission jack after the straps have been removed. Replacing the sensor by touch and feel maybe using mirrors to see what you are doing? It might be possible to cut a hole in the bed and patch it later but that seems pretty time consuming too.
