Alright, this isn't my car anymore, but my sister -in-laws now.
Basically she says the oil light came on or flashed rather and instead of parking she kept driving for 5 miles or so.
She said that when she got to her house the car was knocking. I went and looked at the car last night.
1.the car has clean oil at the FULL mark(checked like 4 times)
2.start the car and the lifters make alot of noise NO OIL LIGHT-turn the car off within
5 seconds
3.check oil-it's perfect, no metal flakes
4.start the car again-it immediately starts again-no oil light-no ticking at all. let ir un for 20 seconds maybe and I hear a "whirring" noise...
Anybody have any good ideas?
I think the oil pump is going out because of the oil light flashing on and off on her. Also this may be the whirring noise.
Thanks in advance
