The low oil pressure warning on Peugeot 308 1.2 PureTech engines is caused by **wet timing belt degradation**. The belt runs inside the engine, exposed to heat and oil, and sheds rubber particles that block the oil pump strainer, starving the engine of lubrication. Peugeot recommends belt inspection every 20,000 km or 1 year, with replacement at 60,000 miles or 6 years. Peugeot's Customer Support Programme covers 100% of costs for oil pressure issues from premature timing belt degradation, up to 10 years or 112,000 miles.

• Wet belt degrades and sheds rubber particles into oil system
• Oil pump strainer blocks, triggering dashboard warning
• Stop driving immediately if warning appears
