For the past couple days the "Low oil pressure" comes on when i come to a stop or at idle. Oil level is where it needs to be. Anyone have this issue before?
Okay thank you I’ll do that ASAPUse a mechanical gauge to verify that the oil pressure reading is correct. Measure the oil pressure at hot idle, at 2000rpm, and post the results. Then we might be able to tell you what's wrong.
My light went off and was intermittent. I pulled the oil filter and it was full of metal...currently prepping to pull the motor.
From how the motor sounds, it's like I've got a bad rod bearing but you never know until you look and or diagnose.
Just had a car here with a Low Oil Pressure Light on. Normal suspect would be the sending unit. In this case we found the sending wire on the drivers side of the Intake that runs to the gauge cluster to be chewed through by an animal. Winter months animals do whatever they need to stay warm. We then looked a little further and found the beginning of a nest.
Whatcha got?What is your budget for repairs!?
Testing the waters to see if you'll build a 2015-17 5.0 based n/a engine to replace your ailing 3V. T56 mag xl.

I planned to do an oil change this weekend to see if there is anything in the oil. Within 1.5-2 months the car was 3 quarts of oil low.
Oil filter full of metal...this does not look good.
