Thank you. How similar was your situation? Did you experience any other symptoms, and what steps did you take to resolve it beyond the oil change and filter replacement?

My symptoms were pretty much the same, just the warning lights. In my case, an oil change fixed it, but those lights can mean serious issues if ignored. I'd take it to a workshop ASAP to be sure. They can check for any lasting damage. Better safe than sorry, right?

I appreciate the advice. I took the vehicle to a workshop. The exceeded maintenance interval had led to oil contamination. An oil and filter change rectified the problem, costing 165€. Your help averted potentially more serious damage.

Hey, I had a similar problem with my Hyundai Grandeur (not hybrid though). Those lights usually mean the oil isn't doing its job properly. Have you checked the oil level and condition? If it looks sludgy or low, it could be an overdue oil change clogging things up. An oil change involves replacing the old oil and the oil filter, which filters out impurities.
