All, I have a 2002 Boxster S and noticed that the engine oil light would flicker. This happened when engine revs got low (close to stall in traffic). It turns out that oil pressure relief spring was broken! I have the spring and it cracked if half.
The dealer (Hennessy, Atlanta) could not see a sign of engine damage but due to this my oil pressure was north of 2 bar and probably never got to 5 bar as it would under full throttle. I will keep my fingers crossed.
Anyone else ever have this?
