I have this problem, my oil light come on when I'm under 2000 rpm. And yes, ive checked the oil level and its ok, dont have any leaks either. Has anyone ever had this problem or know of any ideas??

 

wasnt there some sort of problem with this?
i believe something to do with the sensor

 

Take it to the dealer. Could be a sensor or something gumming up an oil passage.

 

yea i have the same thing happens to me sometime, when i roll to a stop and put the clutch in. then it will stay on unless i rev it a little

 

It is either your oil sending unit sensor going bad, OR your oil weight is too light. I put 5W30 in for the cold weather. The weather decided to stay hot for too long. When I would come to a stop in traffic, my oil light would flicker. Changed back to 10W30, all is well! Try that!

 

yeah we have seen this a lot with a bad sending unit.

I think the 9's had a problem with the sending unit... The op has an 8 though.. the sending units are cheap.. I would replace it and it is still doing it then take it to the dealer. I replaced mine and it went away.. 25-30 bucks as opposed to diagnostic fee of dealer of 80 bucks then they will proly charge 50-60 bucks for the sensor and an hour or two to do it... and new oil and filter... big charge.. do it your self if you can.. My opinion..

I always use 10w30.. I'll go order a sending unit on Monday. Thanks for the info so far.

 

i had the same problem. My oil light flickered on and off constantly when i was at a stop or downshifting. It was a bad oil pressure sensor. i replaced it. 30 bucks. and now it works fine.
