Solved: Use AC Delco Oil Filter

Once I used the AC Delco oil filter on my 2007 Impala, this problem went away.

I was just wondering how many Km's have you put on the car since this fix has worked for you?
Thanks

I have a 2008 Impala SS and with 160000 miles and right and I changed my oil .My low engine oil pressure light would come on once every couple of days . I recently changed and it one of the coldest days this year and I thought I would let it warm up first and once it reached normal running temperatures it would come on........and check engine come on with a P0521 ......was pissed . I started doing some research an come cross the form ......with the post telling someone to try Pennzoil Urtra so I tried it with replacing the oil sensor .....and the thanks to your post .....Two days strong no lights .......only one problem left my tire pressure system won't show me the relearn tpms can't find in in the car information center ?????????

... Not sure what else to do, I love my car and need it therefore cannot afford to have my car mess up on me, nor continue to drive not knowing what it is as I have my daughter with me 99% of the time.

Any suggestions?...

I keep readin that the oil pressure sensor has been changed, but nothing about the filter. Right below the sensor is a filter and if it is clogged it will give you the low oil pressure warning.

I'm going to guess these cars don't have an oil pressure gauge, just a sensor for low pressure?

What type of oil and your using? Have you tried mixing in some 5w40 or even 5w50?

these cars are designed to let the driver know when the oil is getting close to the scheduled time change and then a series of programed sensor chip warning will follow if u keep driving past the time of the oil change and the oil presure warning becomes more sensitive. when u do change the oil u are supposed to retrip the setting to the next 3000 miles and allow it to reset if this isnt done it confuses the brain and will continue to give false oil presure low warnings. basicly if your not leaking oil and using the right kind and changing it within the frequent time frames your fine your car is fine.
