The dash is blinking low oil pressure, shut off car now. Took it to the mechanic and the said to replace pressure sensor. Diagrams have shown on top driver's side. Is this correct? And if not, could I get a diagram of where it is located? Last 8 of the VIN 91251413.

Sure, the oil pressure sensor is up front of the engine near the throttle body. Here is the exact location in the images below. Check out the images (below). Please let us know what happens.
