Causes and Consequences of Low Oil Pressure on an Opel Insignia Engine

Model: Vauxhall Insigna Insigna A, MK 1 - Years 2008-2017
Part: Engine oil

In this video, you can see the consequences of low oil pressure on the engine of an Opel Insignia 2.0 with an A20DTH engine. A small rubber seal installed in the engine block has degraded over time. As a result, it can no longer provide a reliable seal, and oil leaks from this seal. This issue is present in many examples of the Opel Insignia 2.0 diesel, and in the video, we can see how this design flaw produces truly dramatic effects on the Opel Insignia engine; a small seal that fails causes significant damage due to low engine oil pressure.
