The oil pressure is zero when the engine is not running. The oil pressure sensor will read the low pressure for a second, when the engine first starts.

Whats the reason for engine warning light on an astra?

This question all depends on which Warning light you are refering to. The Check engine symbol indicates when a system servuce us required. The symbol lights up when the ignition is switched on and goes out shortly after the engine starts to run. If the symbol lights up when driving serivce to the engine management system may be required, the car is still drivable but must be service asap to prevent engine damage. Note if the symbol flashes and the engine cannot be started, turn the iginition off for at least 2 seconds before attempting to start the engine again. The other Symbol is the Emissions light, which looks like an engine. This system is the emission monitoring system, it lights up when the care is turned on and then turns off shortly after starting. If the light stays on you must have your vechile serviced asap, note if the symbol flashes whilst driving reduce your speed and service you vechile asap.
