Why does the engine oil light flash at idle on the Smart 450?
Years 1998-2007

Answer

The engine oil warning light flashes, in the Smart 450, when the quantity of the latter is minimal, but above all it must be replaced, as its viscosity is compromised over time, therefore the ability to lubricate is minimal.
