My son was returning from an 80 mile drive and he says just a few miles away the oil light and chime started coming on and it seemed it would go off with more rpm . I had visions of bad pump, low pressure, wearing bearings etc. I hoped it was just the oil level a little low and maybe climbing hill or something caused it. The next am I checked oil level and it was middle of min and max range. I drove it about 6 miles and NO OIL WARNING LIGHT appeared.
Then I remembered it was getting close to oil change interval and looked at overhead info display and it read zero miles to oil change interval (I set for 3125 miles to do by 4,000). I know it had just gotten to zero in the last 20 miles or so. I wonder if its being driven when the setting reaches zero if it alternates the warning light. Has anyone had this happen? I am not sure if I ever let change interval get to zero on one I was driving.
I changed the oil and filter and drove it another 20 miles and no OIL LIGHT came on and its been driven a few hundred miles since and no oil light. ?Intermittent sensor problem. I dont have oil pressure guage.
It could have an effect that the battery was reaching end of life and soon after started turning engine slower and replaced it probably a hundred miles after the OIL LIGHT had come on.
Any Ideas? ? Intermittent low voltage ?
