You check the oil before starting your engine and you would see there is an issue before it starts….
Or are you gonna sit here and pretend you stare at an oil gauge while driving so you don’t do damage your car, but you don’t check to make sure there is oil and what state it is in before turning it over…? And maybe pay attention to the road instead of a useless gauge.
I seem to only think about checking my oil while I’m driving, which means I have to get to where I’m going and wait for it to cool down first. That’s enough time for me to forget about the oil.
I end up checking it maybe two or three times a year…
I’d like to have an oil gauge not to stare at it while driving but maybe look at it every once in a while, especially if I hear something strange or while going up a long slope or whatnot.
Oil pressure tells you if the engine is dying or if the Oil is breaking down or overheating. I’d take it over an RPM gage.
A lot of vehicles dont have it in their cluster menus these days.
Depends if it has a manual or automatic transmission. In a manual, I really want a tachometer.
I never look at the RPM gauge in a manual, just drive by feel and sound. But no doubt it’d be useful if you’re doing off-road driving?
And can’t do that with the oil…?
“knock, knock, knock, knock”… I suppose you can.
