This is all in prep for the 'ring next month and the fact that if it lives, its going to be turned into a more track focused machine.

Hahahahaha had the same happen to me 2 days ago on a long left though. Light popped an then turned off as soon as the car came back straight. I blame my standard suspension as this never happened to me when the engine was in my lowered on kw g40.

[Matty!]

Anyone?


And its happened on both suspension setups for me!

Have you fitted an oil cooler?

[Ben.lopo]

No I haven't

[Matty!]

Have you fitted an oil cooler?

I am currently in the process of doing this.

Any updates to this topic! This might help me with my similar problem.

If you don't have an oil cooler then it's definitely worth investing in one.

However, mine used to do this and the problem disappeared after I renewed the oil lines to the charger.

Try the oil cooler first because if it is that, then at least you get an oil cooler out of it.
