I am about to hit 3000 k on my jeep. I know you do not have too but I have always changed my oil at 3000k intervals.
Thanks for the information, Ive run the K&N oil filter on all my other rigs, debating to try that or just stick with OEM or the Motocraft oil filter. Probably go with the Motocraft.
Does different brand Syn. Oil really matter? Mobile 1 or royal purple etc..?

I am 99.9% sure mine has this happening as well and I have had the OEM filter and oil from day one, always changed at intervals. What should I say when I take it in to have it looked at? I know they wont want to replace the engine but if that is hat needs to be done, I dont want them talking their way out of it. Any advice?

Mobil 1 has been the worst for me as far as the oil light coming on after startup. I have tried several and they all did it. K&N as well but they are the same filter.
I have a Pure 1 in right now and no light on startup.
I know this came up briefly in another thread, but question
Is there necessarily a cause and effect relationship between a momentary lack of oil pressure and engine increased engine wear or is the oil film sufficient to prevent damage in the interim?
