Hi everyone, I've read thru the low oil pressure thread, but I'm thinking my problem might be different.
I have a 2007 Yukon that I drive daily to and from work. I have the same problem in the morning and when I return home. When I start my Yukon I have low oil pressure around 20 psi. As I drive a few blocks and stop at intersections the pressure drops to near 0 and sometimes 0 and give me warnings to shut off the vehicle. As I drive on the highway the pressure stays in the 20 psi range, but the strange thing is the oil pressure will suddenly increase to about 45. If I'm looking at my gauge at the right time I can watch it go from 20 to 40 within a couple seconds. It happens the same every day about 10 miles from home. It will stay like this and not drop for the rest of my drive. On the way home it does the same thing.
I've replaced my oil pressure switch and pressure switch filter. I've also recently had the oil and filter changed at the dealership. I saw no improvement after this.
