Peugeot 301 oil pressure warning

My 2018 Peugeot 301 with a gasoline engine is acting up. At 50464 km, the oil pressure warning lamp and a general warning light on the speedometer are on. I suspect oil contamination, but I can't find any leaks. Is this a major problem, or am I overreacting?

I had something similar happen on my 301. Did you check the oil filter? A blocked or low-quality filter can cause issues with oil pressure and trigger those warning lights.

So, you think a bad oil filter could be the problem? I've kept up with maintenance, but maybe the last oil change wasn't great. Did you have any other symptoms besides the warning lights?

The lights were the only symptoms, and the workshop confirmed the oil filter was the issue. Get yours checked soon to avoid engine damage.

You were right! The workshop found a clogged oil filter causing the oil contamination. A new filter and oil change, and it runs great. Cost 165€, but worth it to avoid engine damage. Thanks for the tip!
