You should post this in the 2nd Generation Ram section. There's guys there that can help. But I'd think 1) Worn main bearings 2) Bad oil pump.

Moved!
Good luck! I would guess the same as Mantis did. Did start knocking and tapping when the light came on? |
bad main bearing and major engine problems usually wouldn't make oil psi intermittent. What I would do Is drop your oil pan and take a look at you pick up screen. The screen could be sludged as well as the tube. While your under there you might as well put a pump in though with a new pick up tube and screen and oil pan gasket. This maintenance is well worth your time and money.

put in a melling high volume pump with clean or new pickup and you'll probably be fine.
if your rear mail seal is leaking replace it too. http://www.pavementsucks.com/tech-article-31.html |
