Oil and filter changed but still getting that red warning oil light on dash!! It comes when start the engine, then goes off untill revs go high for a few seconds and then goes off again. As many times as I try to go high revs its doing the same over and over.... How danger it can be? Can I use the car or should i not? What do I need to look at to get this sorted?
Thanks a lot.

So the warning comes when you raise the revs? How much - is slightly above 2k rpm enough? Check wires on your oil pressure sensors, left side of engine block [passenger side for those who drives RHD car], white one could be without it's wire.
