The VTEC oil pressure sensor is very hard to get spoilt. Maybe it's due to a loose wiring or connection. I had the same problem before but everytime I just simply unplug the wirings from the ECU and plug it snugly back in again.

For my case, everytime the checklight lights up due to the oil pressure sensor, VTEC will not engage at all. Just check your wiring before u change the sensor.

no..it happened after i changed my bottom end (block)..the ecu threw an error code (22) but i think most of us had experienced this before so i just did wat crower75 said plus an oil change then everything goes well...

Check dip stick - Got oil or no more oil
If got oil, check if can go into VTEC mode. - Kenot means oil pump not giving enuf pressure
All ok change oil pressure switch sensor

Dear all,

I have recently spike of interest to swap a better engine into my BMW 318ci (E46). My concern is with JPJ endorsement that now restricts me to swap an engine which its capacity is way over the limits. For e.g, dumping a 3.0L engine into my BMW's engine bay. So far has any BMW bros done this conversion or just stick to 2.0L range?

Thanks,
