Oil Light Problem!

[the-wizard]

Ive noticed my oil light is slower going out, i know its cold & can take longer but its never done it before, its a vectra cdti 150 at 104k miles, always serviced well & had oil change 1k ago with dexos 2, car has stood fora day & 1/2 & its just took 11 secs for light to go out, anyone else have this ?.

As admin/mods don't have time to read each and every post, it might be better to flag it up in some other way to them.

The "report post" button for example.

Ok, so just popped into local fiat garage to ask advice, good mechanic ive chatted to before, he says they have never rebuilt a cdti engine & there very robust!, but obviously the oil light usually goes out in a couple of seconds, having had this from new i know thats usuall & know once its started thats the case untill it stands for any lenght of time, why is the oil draining back & taking so long to prime from cold ?. Dont want to throw loads at it as ive been meaning to sell for some time but been busy.

Could be a faulty pressure sensor. Need to manually check the oil pressure with a gauge.
