Fairly typical symptoms, you likely either have a broken oil pump or a walked cam bearing. Your tick might actually be a result of the low oil pressure. Either way the oil pan and front cover have to come off. The fact the light goes out when you rev the engine suggest the switch or wiring is not faulty.

The wired UltraGauge is always on and it'll beep if I'm not paying attention and the temp gets too high. It also reads codes and can clear the Check Engine light.

Here's what I ordered:
1 x UltraGauge EM Plus v1.2 (UltraGauge_EM_Plus v1.2_15)
Mounting options Horizontal Surface Mount & Bracket

Good job. Using blue tooth on a cell phone never make sense to me. UG is 10x better and the location is fixed. Set it up and done. I used the suction cup to keep it up a little higher. Ultra Gauge is the best. Who wants to set up new BT and apps each time you get a new cell phone or fiddle with phone updates? Set it and forget it.

i agree I don’t even like touching my cell when I’m driving Here in Canada if they even suspect your looking at a cell you get rammed with a $1000 fine.
plus sometimes I don’t even have a cell phone when I drive

What the hell is going on in Canada, the more I see in the news the more I feel like we live next to the Soviet Union.

they just banned 1500 types of guns assault style yesterday because they think criminals go to the gun store and start shooting people

95 % of the shootings happens in Toronto area with stolen hand guns.

We are losing our freedom

Laws only matter when people follow them.

That Gun ban was a Knee Jerk Reaction ..... with no due process .... they are Terrified of what could happen to them. They over played there hand.

@redwhitekat Not without a large change to the law, firearms are a federal responsibility as Alberta was told by the Supreme Court when this mess started back in the 80's and they wanted to handle things provincially. But it is very off topic
