While i drive, the check oil light comes on for a couple seconds. It happends randomly and its only on for a couple of seconds. Has this happened to anyone else? What may be the problems?
Thanks.

 

Have you checked the oil? If you are low and it is sloshing around it can turn the light on and off.

 

check your oil.?.

 

I had my last oil change less than a month and and put on less than 1000 miles since. Anyways, i just checked my oil and i didnt have any oil! I checked under the car and there is an oil leak! Has this happened to anyone? Why is this happening.

 

Check for a loose oil drain plug or a loose oil filter. Might not have been tightened correctly when you had your oil changed.

Ooooo, was the change done at the dealer? Might be time for that new engine warranty claim....

 

question: When you turn on the engine and it idles, whats the oil psi? (middle gauge on the tri-pod)

 

At idle about 30 psi (1/4 tick mark). When giving gas at a normal rate, 60 psi.

Edit: When the car just starts and not warmed up, it's at 90 psi and drops to 60 psi (1/2 way) when the rpms fall to 1,000. When the rpms are at 600-750, it's at 30 psi.

 

Where did you get it done? Stop driving your car!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Im not driving the car anymore. I had the oil change done at a local shop. It isnt just another garbage shop, its a high end shop that does high end cars. I made an appointment with my nissan dealer for teusday. I am going to take the car to the shop tomorrow to ask them to check the leak to see if they can see why its leaking.

 

i hope you dont blow your engine

 

Oh no! You didnt get it done from the dealer? The washer must be replaced every oil change. They probably didnt know.

 

What are you talking about

 

Where did you hear that from? I have never replaced my washer and I haven't leaked a drop.

 

Do you do your own oil changes? (you probably only did one oil change because your car has just over 3000 miles in one year!)

 

Yes I have done one oil change, however where is it written that we have to change the washer every oil change?

BTW, those washers at the delaer are not cheap either!

 

I doubt you have to change the washer everytime. My dealership didn't.

 

I haven't changed the washer yet and I've done three changes in the short 6,500 miles that the car has. I'm going to change the washer every 4 changes though

 

i have one of those magnetic drain plugs (really works), and i have used the same washer.

 

Why should i be affraid of my engine blowing? I actually wouldnt care if it does. Nissan would then pay for my Ferrari!

Also, you seem like a total azzhole. Its almost as if you want my engine to blow. I guess some people are just born azzholes.
