hi new to forum so I guess this is where my first post should be
I have a 2005 lwb 2.5tdi van with 107Ks on the clock (purchased with 38k on it)
it had the usual problems - power steering pump and heat exchanger replaced about 5 factory cd players under warranty until I dumped it for a Sony deck.
Now I think the water pump has gone too (after searching some posts) but my van has another problem the oil light keeps coming on at higher rpm's (above say 2000 when driving) and the oil level is fine can this be related to the water pump?
ie water in oil
its been serviced every 15thou with either vw spec 506.01 or 507
would 507 spec oil cause any problems (van has no DPF)
do these engines sludge up if the wrong oil is used
