So my 2006 Saab 9-7X with the 5.3 LH6 just started giving the “Oil Pressure Low” light for a few seconds upon start up. Once the engine is running, the oil pressure seems to stay in a healthy range.
The car is still under a 3 Month/3K Mile warranty from the dealership I bought it from. I already had in there once and they replaced the oil pressure sender after saying the oil pressure was reading good. The light is still coming on at startup right now even after the sender replacement.
I reached back out to the dealership and they are now trying to tell me that this is normal for a 5.3 with higher miles (180k). I’m not buying this, as it was not happening when I first bought it a couple months back. So I’ve continued to escalate it while still under warranty.
Thoughts? Should I be worried about this?
I’m also curious if anyone else has had a similar issue with a 5.3.
