LOL, Puts a light on when you're sitting on the side of the road free reving... That's almost as useful as the oil pressure light in a HQ....

well apparently fella he seems to be right because a couple of the mechanics said they cant understand why the engine light hasnt come up, and they tell me (over the phone) that if the transmission is kaput. something about the valvetrain will give the sensors no choice but to bring up the engine light in the dash....i dont know fella...F%$#in electronic ****...thats all i have to say

Yeah well, the oil pressure light came on in the HQ when your engine spat a rod... SO same difference I guess.

the oil light never came on when my oil pick up got blocked in my vr but it came on when the top bearing spun on to the bottom one and sized the whole moter at 70kmh

im starting to think that it may need fresh oil...well im hoping thats all it needs...i do remember having a auto failure in my ford fairlane ghia and when the auto was farked...the engine light would show...but the cross 8 isnt going through any of the signs i was having with the ford...so cross fingers thats its just a matter of fluids and dont need a new tranny

**** i'd trade ya for your hq for my crewman....old school holdens were so much easier to figure out than all the EFI full electric options **** these days...when it comes to EFI cars i just get so confused and just dont bother touching anything...miss the carbies
