Did you prime the new oil pump before running the engine?

Howzit, did you get help on the flashing light? I have a similar problem but I replaced my polo vivo 1.4 clp timing chain cover with the cls one 1.6 and it has a cartridge oil filter. After doing that the car is now flashing the oil light. I replaced the oil sensor and the oil pump not so long ago. Please help
