Subject:      Oil Light
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII"

My Oil light comes on and buzzes sometimes when I decelerate and brake. This happens after the engine is warm and I've been driving a few minutes at sustained high speed (3800 - 4000 rpm).

It quickly goes out and doesn't come on again until I decelerate and almost stop. This happened a year ago on a long trip and caused me some concern, but hasn't happened since. Is this anything to worry about?

The oil seems a little over the max level. Could this be the cause?

Thanks,

PAUL
