on the way to work I idled 3/8 mile down driveway to road, started to accel when low oil light comes on. Bump to neutral, (oil light goes off) hit flashers and coast into farmers driveway. check oil (SAT) , start and oil light off, so return home at idle. Light comes on when tried to accel again. Total trip maybe 1.2 miles. If oil pump shaft failed, not sure when it happened.
Car has 169000ish miles and was swaped over to geared BSM at 81K by PO. From what I've read it's likely the oil pump shaft worn. Unknown if shaft was replaced then. At low RPMs is ther still some oil pressure?
Am I toast?
Does the light only come on at higher RPM? If so more engineers should be fired at VW.
Car itself is in almost mint condition, blue with leather interior. How much would this organ doner be worth?
