Why is my oil pressure so low in my Chevy Colorado?

You could have an oil sending unit defective. Other things to consider if you have confirmed you have low oil pressure is that your oil pump is wore out, or worse case, your main bearings are worn to a point that the clearance is causing too much oil pressure loss, kinda like an internal oil leak.

When to replace oil pump in Chevy Colorado?
