Hey guys I just have a quick question. I've just done a fresh oil change about 2 weeks ago and since then when my car is cold just for a second or two max when I start it up my check oil light is on and I can hear a slight knock underneath the hood.
I've consistently checked my oil since the change hot and cold engine and its around the middle to the dip stick of not a bit higher. I've checked for any leaks on my filter and nut on the pan but they're both good. Thanks in advance! I'm off to work so it will be a while for my responses. |

So...if my light comes on for 2-3 seconds every time I start it but then goes away the rest of the driving time, can I expect any damage for just that mere 2-3 seconds of it being on say over a period of 2-3 months or more?
