- Hemi 5.7L
New here, and I appreciate any help I can get. My 2007 Ram with Hemi 5.7L showed low oil pressure about a month ago. Gauge dropping and coming back, slight knock and engine light on. Towed to mechanic, he replaced crankshaft sensor, changed oil, all good until today. Again, oil pressure gauge dropped, fluctuated, dropped, etc. Check oil, it's fine, not due for another change, no noises. Drive to auto parts store, buy a oil pressure sensor, drive home, and on the drive, check engine light comes on. No noise, running smooth. Get home and swap oil sending unit for the new one, start it up, pressure registers lower than normal (gauge usually past half mark), drive it to auto parts store to get light checked and still fluctuating pressures, only to find a code for bad oil sending unit! I just swapped it.
1) Has anyone had these issues?
2) is it possible to get a bad brand new switch?
Thanks for any input guys and gals! Matt
