Diagnosing Oil Pressure Loss in Your Lexus From the Best Car Pros in Canoga Park
Engine oil is responsible for cooling your engine and lubrication working parts.
Lexus has installed the engine oil warning light to alert drivers that engine oil pressure is not adequate.
Continuing to operate your vehicle with low or no oil could result in catastrophic engine failure.
The oil engine light turns on if the oil engine pressure drops below safe levels or due to faulty oil pressure sensor.
You should not drive your vehicle while the engine oil light is on.
Common causes of low oil pressure
Low oil pressure can occur if there’s an oil leak, a faulty oil pump, or if there are low oil levels within the engine.
If any of the hoses crack or get damaged, then it will let the oil seep through it.
If your oil pump becomes faulty, it cannot provide your engine and its parts with proper lubrication.
Another common reason for issues is using the wrong type of oil for your engine.
You may experience a faulty oil pressure sensor, which causes the oil engine light to illuminate.
How we diagnose the problem
Our technicians will test your car’s oil pressure sensor and associated circuit and check for proper function.
If the sensor is reporting as intended, the engine oil pan must then be removed for further inspection.
Once the oil is drained and the pan removed, we can inspect the vehicle’s oil pump for faults or mechanical failures.
Our technicians will diagnose the source of the sensor and recommend a solution.
We also use OEM repair parts and factory replacement materials to ensure you get quality service.
