w3lsh_lupo Posted August 2, 2010 Report Share Posted August 2, 2010 HiNot sure if this is in the correct section.When iv been driving my car the last 2days the oil light keeps flashing. I drive 30min to work and the oil light will come on after about 15min, I did stop and check the oil that was fine. kept going to work then had to pull over again 5min down the road. Has anyone had this problem before or know of what it could be? any help much appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike_M Posted August 2, 2010 Report Share Posted August 2, 2010 Make sure there are no leaks underneath and check the oil when the engine is cold, settled and level.If that is all fine then would say its a possible faulty sensor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Defcon5 Posted August 2, 2010 Report Share Posted August 2, 2010 Its not flashing about level, its telling you its low pressure - could be the sensor as Mike says, but could be something more serious like the oil pickup getting blocked or something. The only place I would be driving it is to a garage tbh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonnykell1980 Posted August 2, 2010 Report Share Posted August 2, 2010 either pick up blocking or when was the oil filter replaced last? may be blocked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
