I just got the oil and filter changed and the system flushed. The oil light started coming on again while it was idling. I'm limping it along with oil additive, but I've been told repairing the worn parts would be time consuming and expensive. Should I bother getting this fixed or should I look into getting a different car?

The decision would depend on what condition the rest of the car is in what if any other repairs are in the near future. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.
