OIL LIGHT SHOWS AT IDLE AND TURNS OFF WHEN ENGINE SPEED IS INCREASED HELP!!!!

<< < (4/5) > >>

Range Rover Blues:
Alan has a good point there, the oil cooler has it's own thermostat to help the oil warm up quicker, it could be stuck shut.  Also the pressure relief valve could be stuck open or damaged slightly/dirty.

i turned the tick over up and still the oil light comes on. this other thermostat, where can it be found ive tested the one inside the oil filter housing and it seems to be fine. however i think ill change it anyway. by anychance there couldn't be a blockage somewhere in the oil filter housing.

cheers sam

ive had the same problem with both engines. becuase recently i changed the engine and now im havin the same problem with the new engine.

Range Rover Blues:
Did you carry any parts over?  oil pump? oil cooler in the rad balocked perhaps :-k

Or are you just unlucky?


BTW I think that both valves are within the oil pump or close by.
