mine just started doin that tonight mate it just came on for no reason.. ive checked oil, water, sensors and connections and still no luck.. ive been told to take it to holden and let them scan it with there tool to find out whats goin on

It will most probably be the oil pressure switch.

can you check ur error codes like VS's? if so, why not check them, the light has come on, so a code has been logged, it'll tell you straight away what it is. it'll be a hellova lot cheaper then holden scaning it, which it does essentially the same thing.

Unfortunately you can't read the codes on an LS1 the way you do with a V6, you need a compatible scan tool.

if its the oil pressure switch is it a big problem?

The only problem is the cost of the switch (I think it is around $300 from Holden, a little cheaper if you shop around) and I had to buy a special socket to remove it. It is also in an awkward position. For the price of these oil pressure sensors you would thibnk they could make them to last a bit longer. It is a very common problem with the LS1. I actually bought mine on ebay for about $160, it was brand new and genuine Holden and only lasted about a month before the engine light came on again, had it looked at by Holden and they said it's the oil pressure sensor.
