I have a 2019 Toyota Camry with 4,400 miles. The last few days the low oil pressure light comes on but after 15-20 minutes of driving it comes off. I’m thinking it has something to do when the car heats up? I recently got an oil chance in case that matters or helps. Any ideas what could be causing this? ---

Have you checked the oil level since the “recent oil change”? ---

Oil level is good. I’m going to dealer tomorrow morning ---

If the oil pressure light comes on, you’re supposed to stop your car immediately and have it towed in. Driving 15 to 20 minutes multiple times is a very bad idea. Keep your fingers crossed that you haven’t permanently damaged your engine. ---

On a car that new, if the oil level has never been too low, the problem is most likely an inexpensive oil pressure sending unit, or a major internal problem in the engine. Warranty good! Good luck and please let us know what is found. ---

The question I have is WHO did the oil change? If it was a DIY job or done by someone other than a Toyota dealer then a warrantyh claim could be eaisly denied. ---

as long as there are receipts, and you can prove the oil and filter met all of Toyota’s specs . . . Toyota corporate is not in a position to deny warranty coverage ---

If the oil light is steady, you can drive. If it is flashing, you can’t. I had that on my Dodge Caravan 2014 year and it was a faulty signal from the sensor and it was changed for free in 2016 under warranty and recall. ---

> [@Amanda\_Mihalatos](#): > > The last few days the low oil pressure light comes on but after 15-20 minutes of driving it comes off. There are specific warning messages like; “Low oil pressure, stop in a safe location, see owners manual” “Engine oil level low, add or replace” “Maintenance required”, this would not be confused with a low oil pressure warning but is expected at to be displayed at this mileage. ---

> [@pleasedodgevan2](#): > > If the oil light is steady, you can drive. If it is flashing, you can’t. It’s not like the CEL…if it comes on, pull over at a safe place ASAP, turn off the engine and check the oil level in the engine
