<grin> I don't know why or how this ended up under the category of Fiat 2006 X1/9 - I'd like to have one but I think I will have to be satisfied with my '87 Bertone instead-
I would highly recommend you have a shop replace the sensor (very soon!) with a pressure gauge to measure the pressure directly to make certain you aren't dealing with a failed or obstructed oil pump. This will only take a few minutes and shouldn't cost much. If your engine isn't clattering, I suspect the replacement sensor isn't any good either.

Remove your sump and clean your oil pick up pipe fiats are bad for blocking the steel mesh with oil crude

I have a 2007 Fiat Doblo 1.3 diesel. When I start the engine, hot or cold, the oil warning light stays on but goes out after about a minute. I suspect a lazy switch but lately the warning light has come on...

there is 2 settings on the oil light, one is, is there oil. other setting is is the oil passing the sensor, if the sensor is playing up it could be the sensor or the oil is not circulating fast enough. this could be the pump or the oil, can sometimes do this after an oil change and deposits are blocking the oil flow.

Oil warning light on a brava car wont go off

Best would be is to measure the oil pressure out put.
Sometimes the oil filter could be the culprit.
Was the oil warning light staying 'on; prior to the oil and filter change?..If not thn the first thing to check is to replace the oil filter ..its better to install the 'original' one .
Hope this helps!

Timing belt problem on fiat brava

i recomend you to buy a book with the timing marks because i had the same problem and i have one of the best repair information software online and that could not even help me
this type of car has to many marks and you need to make sure where they go, but if the timing belt still complete and in the car all what you have to do is mark it with liquid paper or some kind of ink and put it back the same way
