Fiat Idea oil pressure warning light

Hey, I had a similar issue with my Idea. Oil pressure problems can be tricky. Have you noticed any change in the engine's sound or performance? When was the last time you changed the oil and filter? It might sound obvious, but old oil can cause all sorts of havoc, kinda like how old blood thickens and causes problems in the body.

Thanks for the quick reply! I haven't noticed any major changes in engine sound, just the lights. The last oil change... hmm, I honestly can't remember. Could that really be the issue, even with the level being okay?

Yep, definitely sounds like maintenance is overdue. Think of it like this: even if you have enough water in a fish tank, if the filter is clogged, the fish are gonna suffer. Old oil gets contaminated and loses its lubricating properties, even if the level seems fine. With those warning lights, I'd suggest taking it to a workshop. They can check the oil pressure properly and see if there's any lasting damage. It is also good idea to get a new oil filter.

Okay, I understand. Thanks a lot for the advice! I took it to the workshop, and you were spot on. The oil change was overdue. They changed the oil and filter, and the lights are gone. The bill came to 165€. Lesson learned!
