if the oil light was coming on when the engine was at higher rev's then you would have a big problem !!!!! but im sure it's just a switch fault, the switches don't last for ever, iv'e seen a switch go faulty on new bikes in the past.

( wow how many times can i say switch ?? )

I will keep u posted tomorrow, the disappointing thing is I have always wanted a Rover 75 and I really hope I've not brought a pig in a poke, I really want it to be the switch

What oil grade did they put in it? If you are unsure, I would replace the switch, put in the correct oil and fit a GENUINE filter. I put a non gen filter on a Ford I had once and it took an age for the oil lamp to go out once started.

I would be suprised if genuine parts were used. I imagine they use a standard oil for everything but don't know for sure.

Sorry to disappoint you folks but they sent the wrong switch, so I am in limbo for another 24 hours can I stand it. Thanks for the support will fill you in as soon as I know.

BRIAN.......!! Won't sleep tonight now

Arev you going to change the oil and filter for genuine stuff at the same time?

Is it really so important to get exactly right oil, is a filter not a filter, would it really make the oil light play up.
