Oil light coming on and off after oil/filter change. Oil level is good

First find out what type of oil your car requires. examples are 5W 20 or 5W 30, These are examples of weight usually the manufacture list it on the oil cap. Then determine the type reqular or synthetic. As for brand thats up to you. Then make sure you have the filter. There are some that are screw on canister and some are oil filters.you need to know the part you require. Now for the oil pan there are different drain plug sizes some are starting at 12mm 13mm 14mm ect.. know your size. All in a nut shell you open drain plug let oil drain out. Install the drain plug, then reove oil filter, install new oil filter. Fill the engine in the engine oil fill cover and add (I always use 4 as start) you oil start at 4 quarts. Start the engine idle for a few seconds. check the oil level by using the oil dipstick. add if necessary, and recheck for leaks.

well let me see you have 4.6L engine you need 7.5 quarts of oil with new oil filter.to do the oil change you need large drain pan and oil filter wrench and a metric wrench to remove oil drain plug you need a funnel also.you need first start engine let it run for 5 minutes to warm up thin out the oil so it will flow better.once engine warm up.turn off the engine.open you hood.now safely raise support vechicle on jack stands make sure vechicle parked on solid level ground.place large drain pan under oil pan remove oil drain plug you need a 15m wrench remove drain plug let all old oil drain out until you see slow drip then reinstall oil drain plug dont over tighten drain bolt.then place drain pan under the oil filter then remove oil filter using oil filter wrench or large channel lock pliers.once you remove oil filter wipe oil filter seal surface with clean paper towel.take new oil filter add oil to new filter then install new oil filter hand tight take filter wrench turn oil filter one half more turn dont over tighten will damage oil filter seal.make sure oil pan drain plug is in place. then lower vechicle. remove oil filler cap on the valve cover add new oil to the engine using a funnel to keep from spilling oil all over the valve cover and exhaust manifold.add all 7.5 quarts to oil crank case wait until oil settle down in crank case check oil dip stick oil level should be at the full mark on oil dip stick.dont over fill crank case.once you finished oil level correct crank engine check for oil leaks at oil filter and oil drain plug. if engine running okay you see no oil warning lights you ready wheel and deal.

This is straight from the repair manual:

1. Ride vehicle until engine is at normal operating temperature.
2. Locate oil filler plug/dipstick on right side of vehicle at top
of transmission case. To remove the oil filler plug, pull
steadily while moving plug back and forth.
3. Locate oil drain plug at front left side of the oil pan.
Remove the oil drain plug and allow oil to drain completely.
4. Inspect the oil drain plug O-ring for cuts, tears or signs of
deterioration. Replace as necessary.
5. Remove the oil filter as follows:
a. Obtain the OIL FILTER WRENCH (HD-42311). The
tool allows easy removal of the oil filter without risk
of damage to the crankshaft position sensor or
cable.
b. Place the jaws of the wrench over the oil filter with
the tool oriented vertically. See Figure 1-1.
c. Using a 3/8 inch drive with a 4 inch extension, turn
wrench in a counterclockwise direction. Do not use
with air tools.
NOTE
Use OIL FILTER WRENCH (HD-44067) if HD-42311 is not
available.
6. Clean the oil filter mount flange of any old gasket material.
7. Lubricate gasket with clean engine oil and install
new
oil
filter on filter mount. Hand tighten oil filter 1/2-3/4 turn
after gasket first contacts filter mounting surface. Do
NOT
use OIL FILTER WRENCH for oil filter installation.
NOTE
Use of the Premium 10 micron synthetic media oil filter is
highly recommended, Part No. 63798-99 (Chrome) or 63731-
99 (Black).
8. Install engine oil drain plug and tighten to 14-21 ft-lbs
(19-28 Nm).
9. With vehicle resting on jiffy stand, add 3-1/2 quarts (3.3
liters) engine oil as specified in Table 1-1. Use the proper
grade of oil for the lowest temperature expected before
the next oil change.

you need to remove 2 undershield covers. one is metal held on by 4 12mm bolts, the other plastic by 5 12mm bolts. oil filter is front of engine slightly towards drivers side, and drain plug is a 17mm. 4.5qts of 5w30

Manufacturer recommends "Suzuki Performance 4 Motor Oil". Actually, any SF or SG rated oil under the API service classification will suffice. 10W-40 is the recommended viscosity.

If you can not get 10W-40, the following are acceptable:

14 to 104 degrees F 20W-50
0 to 104 degrees F 15W-40 or 15W-50
-4 to 104 degrees F 10W-40 or 10W-50
-4 to 86 degrees F 10W-30

The Engine oil capacity on the VL 800 is:

3.2 U.S. Quarts (3000 ml) without a filter change

3.6 U.S. Quarts (3400 ml) with a filter change.

You are going to need a motorcycle lifting jack stand or similar device to properly accomplish the oil change. Before you start, locate the oil filter on the front side of the engine, between the engine block and the radiator. Read and copy down the number on the filter. The OEM filter is a Suzuki 16510-03G00-X07, I think.

Start raising the bike on the stand until level, then strap it securely to the stand. Put an oil catch pan/can, etc under the drain plug, which is on the bottom of the engine. Remove the drain plug and catch all the oil. Remove the oil filter. Before installing the new filter, lubricate the rubber gasket with a little of the old oil. Install the new filter, re-install the drain plug tightly and then fill with the above specified type and amount of oil.

There are a number of different places that will accept waste oil for recycling.

God bless and good luck!

under the vehicle you will see a plastic cover under the engine, remove the 4 13 mm bolts and drop the cover (they give you an access port but its cleaner and easier to just take the cover off) the bolt to drain the oil is also a 13mm on the bottom of the oil pan facing the ground. drain the oil, put the drain plug bolt back in and tighten, don't over tighten! the filter is located up the front of the oil pan on the passenger side, only accessible from the bottom, remove the filter let the oil drain, put some fresh oil on the rubber seal of the new filter and install, make sure to follow the directions on the filter because it will tell you how many turns to put on the filter, overtightening will make it extremely difficult to take off next time! after that, clean up any oil left on the frame and oil pan and install the plastic cover with the 4 13 mm bolts, locate the oil fill cap, remove and refill the engine with the right oil (i believe its 5w30) untill it reads full on the dipstick, put the cap back on and start the engine and let it run for about 10 seconds, shut the engine off and recheck the oil level and fill as necessary. (if you have the 4.2 i think it takes 7 quarts, check your owners manual for the oil type and capacity to be sure) remember to turn the key on with the engine off and pump the gas pedal 3 times to reset the oil life indicator after the oil change is done, hope this helps!
