Pulling over, I checked the oil, it was fine.

You might check the wires for tightness on the sending unit on Bank 2 (at least on the 3.4)

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

11 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Recently I received a Low Oil pressure indicator while I was idling. It went away very quickly but it happened a few times. What could this be an indication of?? Thanks! Rob

POST 2Original post

I'm no mechanic, but what about your oil level?

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I checked it... level's look good.

POST 4Original post

just a guess...if it dropped suddenly...like a flicker in current it might be a loose wire/connection. if gradual...not sure..

POST 5Original post

I've had the same thing happen recently. Oil pressure went to zero and the indicator light came on but only for a couple seconds. My guess is a loose conection or possibly a faulty sensor. Taking it in next week. Will post.

POST 6Original post

You might check the wires for tightness on the sending unit on Bank 2 (at least on the 3.4)

POST 7 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I have to bring mine in for an oil change too. Unfortunately I don't have the time this week, so keep me posted on what the service center says. What wires would I be checking??

POST 8Original post

Rob- I was driving home coming out of the Sierras over Labor day weekend, when my oil pressure flat-lined. Oil Pressure Gauge = 0, System Failure indicator in my face. I have to say, quite an adrennaline rush! I had visions of fried bearings... Pulling over, I checked the oil, it was fine. Started the car and everything was normal. Took it into the dealer where they ran diagnostics. Turned out it was a bad sensor. Probably the same in your case but you'll want to check it out nonetheless.

POST 9Original post

Same thing here, in NYC traffic the engine turned off - Low Oil warning, I restarted the car and no problems. Strange...

POST 10Original post

Just spoke with the dealer....said it's typically the sensor. Let you know what mine was next week.

POST 11 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Excellent, thanks guys... yes this happened to me in midtown traffic as well... very unsettling.
