00' 9-5 Aero, 197,000mi. Had pan pulled and pickup screen cleaned in the spring. The tech took pics of it for me. Said there wasn't that much build-up and that he cleaned what little sludge was there. But recently I had the car sitting for over a month and when I started it up, the oil pressure light flickered and then came on solid. I turned the car off, and it went away. I started it up again and drove it another 5 minutes and it came back on. Turned it off and it went away again. Repeat this several times, to now where it only comes on once every other drive cycle. I'm not sure what is causing this. The engine smells hot, and I believe there is an oil leak at the back of the engine somewhere because it leaks on the cat. The car is on its original head gasket. Afer long drives, I hear ticking noise from the cams/valves but it goes away after next drive cycle. I know I shouldn't be driving the car lol. What do you think it could be? I changed the oil in this car meticulously with 0w40 and with the recent pan cleaning i'm not sure why this is happening.
