Does low oil pressure mean after oil change?
When the oil light on your dashboard comes on, it might mean your vehicle has low oil pressure. This drop in oil pressure could be a sign of a few things: you are low on oil, your oil is dirty, or you have an oil leak.
Can you use an oil filter twice?
Yes, it’s perfectly safe to use either type of filter with either type of oil. If you practice extended drain intervals using synthetic oil, however, a conventional oil filter may not offer the required service life, meaning you’ll have to change it in the middle of the oil drain interval, which is inconvenient.
Can you just change the oil filter and not the oil?
Here is a better explanation: If you change your oil filter every other time,I’m sure nothing bad will happen since you dump the oil at 3500 miles. But, I dunno, the filters are cheap. To me, that would be like taking a shower and putting my dirty clothes back on.
When does the low oil pressure light go out?
I have changed the oil a couple of days ago, and I’ve noticed that the low oil pressure light stays on longer than normal. Normally, it goes out almost immediately (<1s) after starting the engine, while it sometimes takes up to 4 seconds now after the oil change.
Do you have to reset the oil change light?

Why is my oil pressure so low after replacing the filter?
The replacement oil filter often gets blamed for this encounter when the condition was actually the introduction of air into the system. Installing a second oil filter (often another brand) often gets credit for restoring the oil pressure when the actual solution was the release of the trapped air.
