| Complaint: |
Oil pressure indicator stays on up to 5
seconds after cold start. |
| Cause: |
Due to the fact that the oil filter assembly
has no back flow valve installed the oil filter element runs empty
after longer engine stop. |
| Production: |
|
Remedy:
In case of customer complaint inform customer about technical reason
as mentioned. Based on long term durability tests there is no impact
on the engine liability.
Note: It is not allowed to install backflow valves into the oil
circuit.
This would automatically cause lack of lubrication in the cylinder
head gallery.
