My 406 HDi Griffe

[atadinho]

Muito Boa tarde. reparei que a viatura tem Placa portuguesa, por isso deduzo que seja português, gostaria de saber se ainda é proprietário da viatura, e se por acaso não é da zona da Covilhã.

Obrigado

Sim, ainda sou propietário. Mas não sou da Covilhã...

Hadn't noticed before - but it's got an oil pressure warning light, (which ours don't have).

That light comes on when oil pressure or oil level is too low. I've driven hundreds of cars and every single one had that light...

i think almost or i would say all cars have that, can't remember seeing one without it ... even my ex clio from 94 had that ...

Yes, virtually everything has them.....

except 406 HDi's. (at least UK spec ones anyway).

Really? Is this a multiplexed thing cause my 110 has one.

Well, after a bit of looking at this forum, it appears that on a non multiplexed HDI the oil light comes on with the ignition, and not on a multiplexed one. Slightly wierd. How does one know it's workng? Just been looking at a multiplexed one and thought it was a fault!
Oh well, check on here first is the lesson.

busman, that doesn't make sense, why it doesn't turn on when ignition is turned on only on multiplexed ? That way you can't know if the sensor/light of dash is working ...

Exactly what i thought, but they all seem to do it. Check out other posts on this forum.
Edit. Just spoken to the pug stealer up the road, and he said, ''yep, they all do that, its a pug thing.''
