location of oil pressure sensor?
8's arent exempt from it, I have an 8 and mine is flickering. The diagram shown is from the 8 manual because that is what I used to locate mine. Changed it and the light has stopped.
I've been having the same problem with my 8. the light flickers only at idle when the car is warmed up. Seeing these posts makes me feel better about it being the sensor. symptoms are just like yours.
This of course is what the sensor looks like..

This is the best pic I could get with it in the motor.. Its about 4 to 5 inches under the intake manifold.. Very easy to feel for...

And a random one.. I couldnt find my deep well so I unscrewed the spade plug.. if you have a deep well you dont have to..

Hope that helps a little..
I don't usually post very often because I normally find all my info using the search option but I can't seem to find the oil pressure sensor on my evo 8 I want to replace it. Please show me where it is. I could not find it yesterday while I was changing my oil.
on a 9 its in the back of oil filter housing take off right hand front wheel you should be able access it
on a 8 its at the back of the block left hand side below the steel water pipe that runs along the back of the block so not as easy

Thanks yeah I know the general location of the sensor but I just can't see it and yes I have a evo 8 but what's the easiest way to see the damn thing thru the passenger side on top of the car? Thanks for the info guys I'll give it a try tomorrow.
