    Autocheck & Trip Computer Niggles

    A couple of niggles that I would like to remedy

    Firstly,
    Start engine from cold, pull off and after and approx 1-3mins of travelling I get an oil can image on the autocheck and an audible sound. Oil level is good getting 5+bar pressure when cold and reducing to 1.8ish when hot. I suspect a dodgy sensor/wiring as this doesn't happen everytime.

    Secondly
    It appears my trip comuter doesn't work as the only two readings that work are the miles remaining to next fill and duration travelled since the rest button has been pressed. The instantaneous MPG reading is 0.

    Thirdly
    What should the idle speed be as mine seems to be between 6&700rpm, when warm, I would have thought 8-850rpm would be more ideal.

    Thanks for any assistance,

    Mark

    oil warning sounds like one of the pressure switches - cheap as chips to replace, might as well change both
