[QUOTE="jmatt20, post: 35616, member: 186"] i fail to see how bobcat can walk away from this problem..unless they pulled an oil sample and found some sort of contaminant ..ie service problem they are on the hook for the engine ..even if you laid the machine on its side or worked on too steep of a slope.( i don't think a bobcat can work on a slope that uncovers the oil pickup) the low oil pressure sensor should have turned off the machine before it destroyed the engine. i have turned more than one bobcat on its side ..flip it upright start it up and go back to work .i have graded slopes that could only be graded down hill ,and then go around and take another pass down the hill . never had an engine fail ..never had an low oil pressure light come on up hill or down hill..either your engine had something wrong with it from the get-go or the low oil pressure shut down didn't work right ( no point in it if it doesn't shut the engine down before it is destroyed!! ) either of these problems go right back to bobcat . did you ask the dealer how you could have run it with low oil pressure if it has an automatic low oil shut down ...
