I searched the topics and didnt' find this same question. My oil pressure light stays on for 10-15 seconds sometimes. Sometimes it goes off in a "normal" amount of time.
When the light stays on there is a "ticking" coming from the engine. As soon as the light goes off the sound goes away. So it would seem that the whole engine isn't getting oil right away. Although as I said this doesn't occurr all of the time.
It is a 1997 1.9 liter with about 50,000 on it. Trying to get an idea of what this is gong to cost to fix before I take to the shop. Thanks
