1999 Holden Statesman WH review from Australia and New Zealand

The "engine" and traction control (orange) lights intermittently come on as does the airbag warning light (red) and sometimes the oil pressure warning light (red). When the orange lights come on, the power steering loses 50% of its assistance and stays off even after the orange lights have gone out.

This can be fixed by (once the orange lights have gone out) stopping, turning off the engine and restarting.

When the oil pressure light comes on, and it only comes on after the orange lights and the airbag light is on, the air conditioner switches itself off.

At times the car will perform normally for 1-2 hours, then the fault lights will appear, always in the order of left to right, ie, engine light, then traction lights, then air bag, then oil.

I’ve had a computer diagnostic check done on the car and the only fault found was a faulty oil pressure switch??? Doesn’t seem right to me.

Anyone got any ideas.

Apart from the above fault, the car has performed faultlessly, it is roomy, comfortable to drive and has adequate power for all situations.
