Dont get a 3 quid one from e-bay. I went through 2 in a year and the last one only lasted 3 weeks bvefore it started leaking again. Pay a bit more for a better one e.g. a tenner and put some PTFE tape on the thread before you screw the new one in or better still get one from VX.

What car/engine?

If the oil light flashes, it might be like my XE where the oil is leaking on to the plug.
