Engine oil problem

Feb 09, 2004 3 Replies

Hi,



when I drive my car for about 10 min. the engine oil LED appears but only when my car is stopped. When my car is moving there is no problem. A mechanic said it's probably the oil pump that has a problem and another mechanic said it's just a defective oil sensor. If someone had that problem before or has an idea of what the problem is please reply.



thanks


Change the oil sensor (it is cheap); if the problem persists then it is time to replace the pump.

Oil pressure sensor $ Oil Pump $$ Main bearings $$$

Also, make, model, year, mileage, oil change > Hi,

Funny how folks like the poster never want to volunteer the make or the 400K miles they have on the vehicle because the diagnosis might be bad.
