What are possible symptoms of a failed oil pump set?

Failures of an oil pump set can directly impact engine lubrication and brake assist system.

Common symptoms of a failed oil pump set:

Insufficient oil pressure: The oil pump is unable to provide stable oil pressure, resulting in poor engine lubrication.

Abnormal noise or vibration: When the pump runs abnormally, abnormal noise or more violent engine vibration may occur.

Abnormal oil level change: Oil pump failure may cause abnormal oil level, and lead to accelerated oil consumption or leakage.

Engine temperature rise: Low oil pressure weakens heat dissipation and lubrication effect, leading to engine overheating.

Fault light on: The oil pressure warning indicator on the dashboard lights up.

Reasons for failures of an oil pump set:

Mechanical damage or wear: The pump impeller, roller, or bearing is worn or damaged.

Poor sealing or oil leakage: Aging of the sealing components leads to insufficient vacuum degree or oil leakage.

Blocking or contamination of the oil circuit: Blocking of the oil passage or poor quality of the oil affects normal operation of the pump.

Malfunction of the pump electronic control system: If the pump has electronic control components, the electronic control module may malfunction.

Insufficient vacuum degree/pressure level: Air leakage occurs in the connecting pipelines, preventing the pump from generating required vacuum or pressure.
