URGENT oil pressure stop engine
Nasir:
Out of interest, Peskyjones, when was your last oil change? What oil was used?
Has the car been on long life or time and distance servicing?
Pesky jones:
Er I had it done a month ago. Oil and filter. I asked them to check and he said it only needed a minor sevrice this year.
Ive bought some allen keys with a ball head on it and its quite long, probably 130mm long. Should be ok
Pesky jones:
Bith photos looking up, first mainly of sump, with oil on it. Second looking at pipe (?) Above sump which looka like its dripping onto sump.
Could just be from where it was last changed but I doubt it. Oh well
The bleed nut is very tight!!
Chris92:
Looks like oil just blowing from the boost pipes to me
Dan_FR:
Oil pressure light is a low oil pressure light. Sometimes it's low but enough to get away with driving it gently until repaired. Sometimes there is no oil pressure which will kill an engine very quickly.
The oil pressure warning will not stop the engine from starting. If it's failing to start after it cutting out - prepare for the worst
