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.

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

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

car is fully warmed up. oil pressure flicks when idling around 1.5~1.6 very quickly. i never have this(used to stay at 1.5 idling after engine fully warmed up), and start got this after i did an oil change last week. i also notice the tech over-filled the a little bit (about 3MM over the MAX line of the dipstick). should i go back and ask them to drain extra oil out?

POST 2 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

oh, no. 24 reads, and no replies? so nobody seen this before? very odd, i thought rennlist guys have seen everything!

POST 4Original post

I agree with tkerrmd. change the sender unit. I have replaced the oil pres.sender units before. I dont see how that small amount of overfill would cause this problem. Let us know if this takes care of your problem.
