Hello!
First post here so go easy on me! I have a 2013 Mazda 6 SkyActiv-D in the UK with 60K miles on it. Last Sunday the Low Oil Pressure warning came on suddenly whilst driving and has remained on ever since, at whatever RPM the engine is. Oil is full, but I changed the Oil and Filter just in case, but it made no difference. I've actually been driving the car as normal for the last week, 40 miles a day, and it handles exactly the same. No noise, banging, grinding or knocking.
I now want to change out the Oil Pressure Sensor to see if that makes the warning go away (I suspect as I haven't killed the engine that it might be a sensor rather than a pressure problem). However, after spending an hour under the car today I have yet to find where it is located. I was concentrating my search around the Oil Filter on the underside of the car, but despite it being busy down there I couldn't see it. Similar on the front of the block - I can't see it..... I also can't find any links to diagrams of my particular engine.
If anyone has a photo or diagram I'd be most grateful!
Thanks
Graham
