scozza23 Posted May 8, 2013 Report Share Posted May 8, 2013 My oil light keeps coming on,then going out and coming on again a few minutes later, but then doesn't come on again for ages. And before anyone asks, yes I have checked the oil,its fine.any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skezza Posted May 8, 2013 Report Share Posted May 8, 2013 First thing I'd say is stop driving it for the moment. If it's your oil pressure dropping, you will quickly **** up your engine and seize it up.Might be your bearings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Howell Posted May 13, 2013 Report Share Posted May 13, 2013 Mine did this.. Oil starvation problem. Caused my engine to seize and blow up! I'm not sure what specifically it can be but could be the oil pump/blocked oil pickup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scozza23 Posted May 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2013 im not sure if its anything that serious, cos its done a fair few miles since it started coming on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skezza Posted May 16, 2013 Report Share Posted May 16, 2013 im not sure if its anything that serious, cos its done a fair few miles since it started coming onIt takes a bit more than a few miles to properly seize an engine, unless the thing is bone dry. Most modern cars can run with well under the dipsticks lowest measure. I still wouldn't recommend it though.You might want to get the codes checked out, asap!
