the matrix 0 Posted November 14, 2005 Report Share Posted November 14, 2005 Hi guys,Just wondered if anyone would know whats wrong with my highline.For the last couple of days, ive started the car from cold and the oil light will flash twice and then go off. The car seems to run fine.Just for reference, ive had the thermostat replaced just before this happened-if this is related to it, i dont know.I would of consulted my owners manual, but i didnt get it when i bought it!Any ideas?

jayvwvr6 0 Posted November 14, 2005 Report Share Posted November 14, 2005 you have checked the oil level havnt you???? Link to post Share on other sites
Nerih 0 Posted November 15, 2005 Report Share Posted November 15, 2005 oil light indicates poor oil pressure, either you got no oil (likely) your oil pump is playing up or your oil pressure switch (black sensor switch at top of oil filter housing, 1 of 3 sensors i believe, check all 3 are plugged in properly).check for oil as jay says though.

the matrix 0 Posted November 15, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2005 I topped the oil up last week, there doesnt seem to be any leaks.Ill have to check the sensor, and come back to you.Thanks for your input so far! Link to post Share on other sites
matth76 1 Posted November 16, 2005 Report Share Posted November 16, 2005 I may be totally wrong but aren't a lot of the dash lights supposed to flash once or twice (such as ABS / airbag and oil etc) once the engine is first turned on? I'm pretty sure the ABS light flashes a couple of times then goes out when the car is started. The handbook says something about this being routine. Can anyone confirm about the oil light? I will check in the morning. Link to post Share on other sites
