Title: Oil pressure low light - ed 30
Post by: Jay_bcfc on October 17, 2011, 06:34:09 pm

Hi Guys, a few times over the last few weeks my edition 30 has been showing the Oil pressure low STOP, lighting up on the dash on start up. checked my oil, still got a fair bit in and I have attached an diagnostics kit, showed nothing wrong... Any ideas?  :drinking:

Ed30's do like to drink the oil, and its something you MUST check on a weekly basis.

These engines are known to use oil, up to 2 litres or so between services in some cases.

I checked the oil today, just under the half way mark so don't think it would be that.

Oil pressure test dude.

Check your oil pick up if you can to make sure it's not blocked.
