i have a 2004 1.6 hdi that has the oil pressure light flickering on after 2-3 miles when the engine is warming up. The light doesn't come on at idle only when driving and for a split second. Any ideas?

Hi,
Have you checked the oil pressure under the conditions that the light comes on?
These engines suffer from excessive carbon deposits in the oil system resulting in blockages throughout the system which generally lead to premature turbo failure.
If the oil pressure is dropping off then you may need to remove the sump to check the oil pick up, but be aware there will be deposits in other areas which may need attention or further dismantling!
Hope this helps, let us know what you find!
