My 97 a4 2.8 oil warning came on tonite. Never did before, I changed the oil a week ago and thought I put a lil extra in there. It was in the high a range. now this came on and I want to take some out. I don't even want to move it onto the ramps, in fear of F'ing the catalytic converter. Should I just jack it up with some stands and take some out or what??
thanks guys

I always thought that when the oil light came on, that meant that your oil pressure had gone out of spec. While this could be linked to the oil level (though not terribly likely, unless you have a massive leak), it is more likely linked with your oil pump. Even if your level is off by a quart or two, I don't think the light will come on.

I could be totally wrong about this, though. :-)

its prolly just the cpu telling me its time to change the oil. As my oil is still above the "a" mark a lil bit do you guys think I should still take a lil out??
easiest way to do this if I should?

thanks

i took it to the dealer and there was a coolant sensor underneath the reservoir disconnected.
