i have got a sprinter 310d, when driving it is normaly fine until turning around a left hand bend, the oil level is spot on and the van runs fine, the light comes on for the duration of the turn and then goes off again. the light that comes on is yellow. not sure exactly what this light means because i dont have a manual for the van. im expecting it is the oil level warning light, or is it the oil preasure warning.

would just like to know what it is at fault so i can fix it without fixing the wrong thing and wasting my money,

thank you
adam

Normally the light should come on with the ignition, so next time it flashes make a mental note or mark its position and check what sign it flags up when you switch on the ign..

Are pictures 'pulled over' to the forum or externally referenced? If the latter then I would suggest the picture has been overwritten where it is being hosted.
