Oil pressure warning
Posted by Allan (more from Allan) on Tue, 20 Mar 2012 13:04:06

I'm hoping I can get some good leads on what may be wrong with my '99 9-5SE. It's been sitting for months in need of brakes, rear suspension repair and motor mounts. I finally got around to having the repairs done but now get a warning light coupled with the oil can symbol.
The owners manual indicates it is a low oil pressure warning.
The car has 198K miles on it. It's been well maintained and with regular oil changes using synthetic oils since I bought it with 56K miles on it. It uses a half quart every few thousand miles, and seems to have a small leak somewhere. It also has the latest crankcase ventilation fix (number 4, I think). There's plenty of oil in it; old, but less than 2K miles ago. (haven't been using the car).
Any ideas would be welcome.
