the car is tellin me i got low oil pressure
it happend last yr, so i had an oil change
and it fixed it
so thats wut i did this time, but it still says it, my dad told me to go buy an oil additive, its thick as ****
but it still came on from the gas station to my house, anyone got any ideas?
maybe i should let it idle so the additive can get around the engine?

Re: the car is tellin me i got low oil pressure
i just happend to click this forum by accident 
But my 5k did the same thing. Sometimes it would warn sometimes it would not. There are 2 little sensors on the side of the engine (5 cylinder im assuming) that I replaced, one is for the idle oil pressure warning and one is for over 2000 rpm. And now it never happened again. Could be that. Good luck!
