Ford F Oil Pressure Warning Light

I have a 2023 Ford F hybrid with 246914 km. I'm experiencing a warning light in the speedometer and the oil pressure warning lamp lights up. I suspect oil contamination because the maintenance interval was exceeded. Any ideas?

Summary of the thread

A 2023 Ford F hybrid was experiencing an oil pressure warning light, suspected to be due to oil contamination from an overdue maintenance interval. The problem was likely caused by old oil breaking down, leading to sludge buildup and a clogged oil filter, which reduced oil pressure. The suggested solution was to change the oil and filter, which resolved the issue after a visit to a workshop.

I had similar symptoms on my Ford F. Have you checked the oil filter? A clogged filter can cause low oil pressure and trigger those warning lights. Also, when was your last oil change? Old oil can definitely cause contamination issues.

Thanks for the quick reply. I haven't checked the oil filter specifically. The oil change was indeed overdue. Could an overdue oil change really cause that much trouble?

Yes, an overdue oil change can definitely cause that. Over time, oil breaks down and loses its ability to properly lubricate and clean the engine. This can lead to sludge buildup, which clogs the oil filter and reduces oil pressure. I would recommend going to a workshop.

Thank you for the information. I followed your advice and visited a workshop, where they confirmed the oil contamination due to the exceeded maintenance interval. The oil and filter were changed. The repair cost was 165€. The issue is now resolved.
