The Code refers to the dual stage oil pump that your car has. One reported fix has been to simply use the OEM (dealer supplied) oil filter as opposed to aftermarket filters. Among the other possible causes of the code are low oil level, dirty engine oil, a faulty oil pressure sensor, an oil pressure sensor harness that is open or shorted, and the oil pressure sensor circuit has a faulty electrical component or connection. If you desire that this problem be diagnosed by a certified Mechanic, dispatched by YourMechanic right to your location, please request a check engine light diagnostic - code P06DD and the responding certified mechanic will get this resolved for you.
