DS 650 oil pressure light

If you have an 03 you shouldn't have to bleed it. Just try the sensor first and that should take care of it.

DS 650 oil pressure light

Thanks JMAC650 I have ordered them from my Bomber dealer and will just try the replacement sensor first. It will be good if I do not have to bleed it every time I service it. I must admit I have done several oil and filter changes without bleeding before. I assumed that since the oil tank is mounted quite high compared with the oil pump and filter etc that it would self prime as you suggest.
