When I come up to stop lights my oil light comes on and off very dim what dose that mean do I needthicker oil I'm running castro 5w30 and I checked the oil and it don't smell like gas. Let me.

 

How many miles you have

 

Bad oil pressure sensor. Guaranteed. It's like $10 for the part.

 

91k on the car

 

I would change the sensor cause is cheap and I would def put at least 10/40 in her. Look for shiny stuff on the oil when you change it. If it happens again take it to the shop and drop the oil pan. Hopefully your shop can open up the oil filter to take a look first.

 

Where is the sensor on the oil filter housing?

 

NoT on yours. It's in the block under the intake mani.

 

What!!!!! Is it hard to get to?

 

If You have the intake mani support it could be. It's on the driver side.

 

Yup its on there

 

Thanks man it was the sensor everything is good now but I'm still going to buy an oil pressure gauge

 

I don't hate to say it: I toldja so.

 

where do you get that sensor?? i had the same problem today and not only that my car wont go on gears either...

 

where can i get that part??? I have the same problem now!
