Oil pressure warning on Peugeot 807 Diesel - experiences and solutions required

Oil light on

|

Warning light in the speedometer of the vehicle

Hey guys, I'm a bit worried about my 2006 Peugeot 807 diesel with 134444 km on it. The oil light is on and there is a warning light in my speedometer. I think the engine oil pressure may be too low. Have you ever had similar problems and what was your experience at the mechanic? I'm a little skeptical, especially after my last visit to the mechanic. Many thanks for your help!

Hi, this sounds like a problem I had with my 2009 Peugeot 308 Diesel. In my case it wasn't an oil pressure problem, but the wrong engine oil that I had filled in myself. I also had the warning light flashing. The mechanic told me that the engine oil I had used was not suitable for my car. Therefore, the wrong engine oil had to be drained from the engine and replaced with the correct one. It was also necessary to change the oil filter. Although the whole thing was not a big problem, it was still enough to immobilize my car. The main thing is to get this taken care of soon. Hopefully my experience will help you. Good luck, colleague!

Thank you for your quick reply. Your experience is really informative! Did you have a lot of costs from the oil change and filter replacement back then? Have you had any other problems with the engine since then or was everything fine? I hope you can still remember the cost. Thanks again for the support and look forward to your reply!

Hi, you're welcome, I'm always happy to help! After all the trouble with the wrong engine oil, I was really relieved that the engine oil pressure was OK again. It cost me €175 to change the wrong oil. Since then, I haven't had any further problems with the engine. But the lesson learned was: always use the right engine oil! Hopefully this information will also be cheaper for your wallet. Keep your fingers crossed that it's only half as bad for you!

Hello, you have helped me a lot, thank you from the bottom of my heart! Your information is really valuable. Then I hope that my expenses will also stay within that range. Your advice about using the right engine oil has reminded me to think about the small but important details. Maybe that's exactly what my car needs at the moment. I'm off to the mechanic tomorrow and hope it's just a minor problem. Thanks again and have a good trip, buddy!
