    Hi, I'd appreciate your help.

    For some time, the yellow oil light, underlined by waves, lights up, I wonder if it could be a trailer of some major repair.
    The indicator lamp usually lights up after a while, while driving. This does not affect the ride in any way - once I happened to travel 50 km with the light on. In winter there was no problem at all, along with warmer days, the problem returned, the indicator lights up once in a while. I ask for advice. Alexander

    I recommend visiting a mechanic if you don't want to read the car's manual. Greetings.

    Welcome Olu /
    To start with, check the oil level, it may not be enough.
    It would be good to write what oil you have and possibly when it was changed.
    Either way, it can herald serious problems and that's why this information is important.

    Maybe this is just a sporadic failure of the oil pressure sensor.
    Is the engine running on the correct oil, i.e. recommended by the manufacturer. How much oil do you change, do you check the oil level and its viscosity. Maybe as a result of engine malfunction there is more oil (diluted by fuel) and the pump does not generate proper pressure, so I suggest checking them.

    Gentlemen "advisers" .... on the driving course, such basic information as oil level etc. is essential.

    Friend Elekt, an experienced driver is able to distinguish whether the oil in the engine is fresh or used and whether it is diluted by fuel. No advanced instruments are needed for this assessment.
    At the same time, I notice that not every driver performs OC of his car for various reasons.

    This is the oil level indicator. I don't know how it measures this car (level directly or oil overheating) but I would start by checking the level. What oil is flooded there? Maybe the viscosity is too low?

    Low oil level, but don't worry, my spouse rides until the red one does not light. And seriously check the oil level
