[QUOTE="Channel Hopper, post: 77194, member: 175144"] On the bikes I have , the oil and water pumps are geared directly inside the engine and so I would agree with you. The oil light only came on once Id retarted the engine after checking under the bonnet, and so the sensors that govern this may have required a shutdown to initiate. On starting the car all lights come up as the manangement system carries out a check I suppose i need an answer from a mechanic that has worked on this particular engine design, there is a third pulley that runs from the alternator belt, and I dont know if its an idle one, or one that has something critical on the other end. Interesting to note as well that in the manual , it confirms the charging light is indicative of an 'abnormality in the charging system' only on the petrol engine, but on the diesil engine variants claim that the belt also has something to do with braking.
