Engine is turned off over night. When I start engine in the morning , the oil pressure lamp keeps glowing for ‎about 3 seconds with a cranking sound of the engine and higher rpm about 1400rpm then lamp turns off with ‎immediate slowing down rpm to 1100 if engine was cool. If I turn off the engine and start it after few ‎minutes , oil lamp turns off immediately without any noise but after a usual trip of about 3-5 miles ‎downtown and stop engine for about more than an hour, the lamp will again glow for three or four second ‎with the same horrible noise. There must be something wrong I need to know. The car is made in Iran!!!! It ‎looks like Peugeot 405 but comes with NO (non-return valve) oil filter. I think they have provided the car ‎with an English engine of Paykan or Hillman Hunter. Dealer located in Baghdad. I can't travel there!!!‎
