Just needing some help! When i start my car the oil light stays on for bout 3 secs and makes a rattle that sounds like its coming from the bottom end.

When the light goes out, the rattle stops but when i reach bout 3000 revs you can hear it again! Could this be my oil pump giving up? There is plenty of oil too.

Well does anyone know the signs that your pump is on its last legs?

Probably your bottom end shells giving up. Rick
