i have noticed recently that my oil light stays on for about 3 seconds when first starting from cold its fine after that

its a bit like when you fit a new oil filter and the light stays on for a bit to fill the filter with oil

i think it could be the oil draining out of my oil cooler at night (mocal 13 row) because its above sump height

when the car has been fired up it wont do it again untill i come back to it after work at 5.00 at night

just wonderd what your thoughts are on this because the engine was built last july and has covers about 12k miles and i cant afford a rebuild

cheers!

I wouldnt worry, mine also stays on for a bit but my pressure gauge shoots straight up
I think the switches must just be slow to react

COMEDY DAN

Change the switch, if it persists, then you need to worry, end of.

What you have to say to yourself is, "its only going to get worse".

Deal with it now, befroe your doing 120 mph down the mway and the pump fails altogether and takes the entire engine with it.......
