Red oil warning light on in the Mini Cooper, why?
Years 2007-2014

Answer

When the red oil warning light appears in the Mini Cooper dashboard, it means that the system is detecting a very low level of engine oil. In fact, it only comes into operation when no pressure is detected in the circuit. It is therefore necessary to check the oil level as soon as possible and, if this is found in the right quantity, it could be a faulty sensor.
