Hi all, looking for some general advice. I have a 1.8t AEB converted 97 Audi Cab. Fresh conversion so trying to iron out a few issues and get car to a stage where it's free of issues.
I have a couple of small issues I am hoping somebody can help with.
Firstly, on first proper drive of car and engine seems to be running smooth and pulling well, I did however have an intermittent oil warning light and sound which I think appears above around 2k but comes and goes. Oil pressure reads around normal on the gauge and engine has fresh oil which is correct level. I'm told prev owner cleaned the pickup on the engine but can't be sure. Other than this is seems to run and pull nicely. First thing I am looking to do is change oil switches, if anyone has advice on doing this on AEB code would be much appreciated.
Secondly, I've noticed a metallic rattling sound whilst revving the engine. Seems to be coming from around top of engine block but not sure where. I have attached video of this. I'm quite new to this game but hoping to learn and try do as much work on the car as possible myself so please forgive my ignorance. Can anyone tell me what they think this is and if it's a major concern?
Thanks
Edit: sorry first post, not sure why i've created an event and dunno how to get rid lol
