I am buying a 94 TDI Disco 150K miles and when the engine is warm and idling on comes the oil light.
My friend who I am buying it off says not to worry about this it happens on all Land Rovers.
However, seeing the red light flash on every time the Disco idles is making me feel very nervous. Love the vehicle, but not that red light.
I can hold my own with engines but am far from technical.
If it is an oil light issue how easy can that be rectified? Is there something I can do by reaching in and tightning it for instance?
If it is something more serious, what could that be and, well, what could be the financil damage? Should I walk away from this purchase?!
I would appreciate any perspective anyone can give. As just one spin around the block and I am completly hooked on the Disco.
Many thanks in advance.
