I was thinking muck in the pressure release valve as the light and guage are on different sensors,

He has taken it back to the garage today,
Does anybody know if the oil pump etc can be accessed without taking the engine back out. (3.2 v6 Auto)
I can phone him with the answer as he's at work.

I have the same problem with the same car same engine, and I was wondering if you were able to fix the problem.
I tried to use thicker oil but that didn't work at all.

I had a problem with a triumph engine where the new oil pump had been machined wrongly and the shaft was too short to pick up the distributor drive in the top, so new parts are not immune from being faulty.
