2000 intrepid oil light
The oil light comes on when engine is hot at the stop light. Didnt used to come on during the winter unless i go on a long journey or after agrassive driving around the city for like 30 mins or more. RPMs when im stopped at the red light on Drive are 5500. I use mobil synthetic 5w30 oil. Its a 2.7L at 89000 miles. I have engine flushed every 3rd oil change. Car runs really good perfomance wise.
