Oil pressure warning light

venelind...
Just to be sure, you replaced the coolant temp sender, & the red oil pressure light doesn't come on anymore when you come to a stop?
I have the same problem, had the pressure checked and verified OK. Still get the 3 beeps. I'll replace it, but I don't see the connection between coolant temp and oil pressure.
Let me know if I'm reading you right. Thanks.

Temp sender
Yes is very weird and I can not see connection too but this was my though on the first place. Also I got my temperature sender from stillership for $30 here in Vegas (temp sender + o-ring+ clip) but you may get this parts online for less then $20. It is very easy to be replaced just do not forget to put pan under the place to collect coolant fluid.
Everything start one morning, when I start the engine and i got 3 beeps but for a few months noting happen just this 3 beeps everytime when I start the engine, and one morning I got 3 beeps 20-30 min after i slow down to stop on the red light and the oil pressure light start coming out flashing I pull over check the oil but nothing was wrong and the same time I saw that the temperature gauge went to C. I have been reading forums for a week and there was a lot posts from other people that they already change (oil pump , filter, oil oil sender ) and they still have this problem so I start from temperature sender and I was lucky.

a6 audi 2.7t oil pressure light on
i was driving my car just like a normal day, then i hear beep beep beep. i lookd at the screen and i see the oil pressure light on. i stop and checkd the oil and the dip stick showed it was over fiilled so i thought there was no need to add oil "maybe is just a over fill" but i would never do tat. i been cheking my oil pressure for 2 days already, i noticed some little tiny bubbles. i took the car to the mechanic and he said it could be a bad oil pump which is about $260 labor about $200. the mechanic also mention he had to remove the front suspension in oder to b able to remove the oil pump is this true?? and is thre anything else i can try to do before replacing the oil pump?? please help!!
