Oil light came on :-(

<< < (3/3)

TomB:
Mines a May 05 build too, if you check the vehicle info on ETKA its probably a "Pre-Production" MY06 model.  I think they used these vehicles to test the MY06 modifications on as mine has been a right pain in the arse since I got it.

I used to work for one of the big motor factors and a lot of our trade customers told us genuine filters were cheaper than ours, plus on certain cars non genuine filters will set off the oil pressure light as they don't hold enough pressure.  I had this problem on my old Caddy van and one of my mates had this problem the other week with a Nissan Pathfinder.  The next owner of the car probably doesn't care what brand of filters were fitted, but I would much prefer a car to buy a car thats had genuine parts used on it.
