Questions and answers
What is a regen looking symbol on left side of screen is on but goes off in a couple of seconds or when you push clutch in?
Why would engine oil pressure drop with adequate level showing on the dip stick?
If the engine oil pressure drops in a Kubota M5L-111 despite an adequate level on the dipstick, possible reasons could include:
1. Oil pump malfunction.
2. Clogged oil filter.
3. Use of incorrect oil type or viscosity.
4. Internal engine wear causing increased clearances.
5. Faulty oil pressure sensor or gauge.
These issues can reduce oil flow or cause inaccurate pressure readings even if oil level is correct.
