I was wondering if was to paranoid, but eveytime i start up my xb the Blue oil light comes on for lets say 2 mins the shuts off......do i have something to worry about?

 

Are you sure its not the tempurature light? Since there is no tempurature gauge, there is a light that comes on blue when its cold and i think red or orange when its hot. when its off you are in normal operating tempurature.

 

That's the "engine is cold" light. Nothing to worry baout.. it's scions way of asking you not to hammer the engine until the oil is flowin

 

thanks guys i was worried...since this is my first car and all and I need it to last me.

 

theres already a few posts on this in this forum. but its fine the light will go on at start up

 

It's actually a temperature light. If you see the same light in red, do NOT add oil to the Box

 

Whatever happened to reading the owners manual that comes with the car? It takes one short evening to read it. Less time if you skip the parts you think you already know.

 

LOL...1st time I started it up after sitting all night I saw the light on so I decided to check the manual. By the time I get to the part where it was just engine being cold, it had turned off and I was ready to roll.


Its always better for your engine to let your car run for a few minutes before driving it...espcially in cold whether.
