SERVICE ENGINE SOON LIGHT CAME ON YET MY CAR DOESNT MAKE ANY FUNNY NOISES

I just had my oil changed a week ago. My car seems to be driving ok. My Service Engine Soon light came on this morning and stayed on. My father in law thinks the automotive technicians forgot to reset the sensor after the oil change. My car does not seem to be making any funny noises. Thank you.

How long can i drive a vehicle when the change oil light come on? 2007 toyota camry 2.4L

Typically, the oil change light comes on when the computer calculates you have 10% oil life left. If your oil level is ok, then you should have the oil changed soon, like within a week or so. If you don't really maintain the car well, I would get it changed right away, like the next day. Here is a video on why not to trust the oil change light.

If your oil level is full, light is off and no abnormal engine noises, if should be ok to drive to the shop. If light does come on, stop the engine. I would also have the shop check your oil pressure with a manual gauge, to determine the exact oil pressure reading. This could save you from major engine failure due to low oil pressure. I hope this helps.

Yes, When you run an engine low on oil enough to cause the light to come on then damage is being done. It sounds like you caught it just in time. I would change the oil and filter for shure as soon as possible. Then I would Change them again In a week or two. Then you should be OK.

Engine light is on.

Your vehicle’s computer system has self-testing capability. When the computer senses that there is a problem with some of the components it stores the correspondent trouble code(s) in its memory and lights up the Check Engine or Service Engine Soon lights to tell you that there is a problem and you should have the car diagnosed and repaired. Not fluid related, but could be a small problem that's easy to fix now. Even a loose gas cap can turn the light on. Have a code scan, that's the starting point.
