Thank u as ever for all the helpful info. I’ve fitted new pressure switch. So far “touch wood” it’s stayed out. One will keep an eye out 🥰

Thanks again guys 🥰🥰🥰

if it were mine just for my own piece of mind i would still drop the sump and clean the strainer and other gunk out of there . the pick up hole is quite small by design ? and is known for clogging . mine was and gave similar symptoms . its not a particularly long or difficult job .
mine didnt have a gasket just normal black silicone did the job

mine didnt but had probably been off before . black general purpose instant gasket type stuff has been fine for the last  7 years . the gm stuff is no doubt better quality but all ok so far !

Trouble is some people use it too liberally and clog everything up.
