Is say you have to check for loose wire. Especially if its caused by bumps too! If buzzer really never comes when you corner and bump at 5000RPMs then I'm wrong ;-/ I believe if it was a real oil pressure problem, you should hear the buzzer quite often even w/o any cornering. But check wiring in first, if does not help, then do oil pressure test at your mechanic.
Few months ago I deicded to check oil pressure because of some noises coming form engine when idle. So, mechanic attached the gauge in place of oil sender, and said to start the car. I started and instatly heard loud buzzing! Only after couple seconds I realized whats going on. It was first time in my life I heard it! Boy, I was scared. But noises I hear are from middle shaft (which turns oilpump). True? -Nils 86 Golf GTI 16V 89 Rallye > OK. Here's the next challenge/confusing behavior. > 1.
