Vauxhall Astra could oil light, and whining noise be connected.
Variant: 1.4 sxi 3 door
Model Year: 2006
Categories:
Running Rough, Starting & Power Loss
I have previously posted 2 threads about these problems, but never thought if they where connected. My car makes a whining noise (not squeeling) that increases with acceleration, and decreases as revs drop. It also happens when the car is at idle and i press the gas.
recently when driving i have also noticed that the oil light flickers on and off. the longest it stays on is about 1-2 minutes and happens after i have gave the car sum gas. Oil level is at max also.
Any thoughts?
