Hello,
The P06DA / P06DB codes point more toward the engine oil pressure control circuit / variable oil pump control issue, which can involve the oil pump control solenoid, wiring, oil condition/level, or the pump itself, not only the sensor, is usually not just a simple oil pressure sender code. First make sure the engine oil is full and clean, if not change the oil and clear the codes. This can sometimes fix the problem, here is the sensor location so you can swap it out to see if that works as well. The sensor is on the left side of the engine block, you will need to remove the air intake tube to get at it. Check out the images (below). Please let us know what happens. Ken
