 my oil light. |
 |
hear we go 2 weeks ago my oil light came on when i checked out my engine i found it was leeking oil, so i changed the seal around the main block, but oil was still leeking, i had a deeper look and found there was alot of oil around, the oil pressure valve so i changed the valve, and then put oil in my car, its no longer oil but the bleeding oil light keeps flashing and blepping, does anyone have any advice or know what the problem could be?????
thanks
steve

do not under stand do you still have a oil light on.
if so pull wire of sender, put metal end on engine ground any bare metal area with engine running have some one tell you if your oil light goes out.
if so then there is a mechanical concern inside the oil system whitch need to be checked out.
let us konw what you find.

sounds like you are over heating.
this could cause oil to get to thin that will set off the light and sound.
look into having the over heat checked out.

dude i had the same problem. no oil leaked but my oil light keept beeping. i changed to a vw oil filter and no more beeping noice. the vw oil filters have the right pressusre for the engine. never use any old crappy tire oild filter. those are shit.
