I have a '97 Subaru outback with ~70,000 miles on it, automatic transmission.
A couple of months back I had serious oil leak problems which seem mainly resolved after the crankshaft seal was replaced. (I also had the crank pulley replaced and the timing belt was changed)
Now I find that sometimes (but not always) when I start the car the "AT OIL TEMP" light flashes exactly 16 times and then goes out.
I've not noticed any obvious problems while driving the car.
I suppose I need to take the car to the dealer, but I'd really appreciate it if anyone out there has any insight into what is causing this apprarently intermittent problem. In particular, how urgently do I need to get this looked at, and could it be related to my previous problems and the fixes done?
Thanks in advance,
Henry
