cornishprincess Posted June 28, 2011 Author Report Posted June 28, 2011 dipped the oil and plenty in so anything else it could be or am i being paranoid?? Quote
edatelder Posted June 29, 2011 Report Posted June 29, 2011 Yellow lights are just warnings and you can carry on driving home - then sort them. Red warning lights usually mean stop. Depends what they are.Check the oil after at least half an hour of being stopped on level ground. When was the filter last changed? Quote
chrispb123456 Posted June 29, 2011 Report Posted June 29, 2011 Is there not an oil quality sensor on these models? may just need an oil and filter change. Quote
Mirez Posted June 29, 2011 Report Posted June 29, 2011 The quality of the oil shouldn't put that light on though, it would prompt a service alert "IN01" if it needed changing but the only reason the yellow warning should come on is if the level is low. (or the sender is faulty). That said the quality sensor is only fitted to some, the OP hasn't stated what make, year and spec the car is so its hard to speculate at this point. - Let us know!
