The Dreaded Oil Light

[limitwheel]

I know that this issue has been discussed many times. But now, my 2016 Genesis 3.8 with 72,000 miles is now exhibiting this flickering oil light.
I happen to know a Hyundai Tech who says they never replace either the injector tip seals nor the injector washer seals. The dealer
just replaces the sensor and wiring connector. Also states they never have a fuel leaking issue from the injectors. This type of information goes against my better judgement.
I'm in the process of getting all that is required to do the job myself.

I'm intending on replacing the plugs and cleaning the valves along with all the necessary parts that this sensor job entails.
Upper and lower manifold gaskets, oil pressure sensor, injector tip and washer seals, throttle body gasket, specialty sensor socket,
Injector tip seal installation tool kit along with cleaning supplies for the intake valves. My question is for anyone who has handled this repair themselves.
My estimate for doing this job myself is around $600-$700.

Is there anyone who has done this job themselves?
There isn't much published concerning this actual repair.
I would like get some feedback if I can use aftermarket injector seals, or use only OEM, or possibly any shortcuts.

Your tech friend is wrong. It’s almost always the injector seals leaking fuel into the oil. The sensor is just the messenger. Yes, you can do it yourself. Use only OEM seals. The cheap aftermarket ones fail fast and you’ll be back in there. No real shortcuts, but cleaning the valves while you’re in there is smart. Your parts list and budget are spot on. It’s a big job, but you’ve got the right plan.

Can you further explain what you mean by saying the injector seals leaking fuel into the oil. Do you mean that anything other than OEM seals will result in leaking fuel?

I will do this job in the spring to finally be rid of this intermittent oil light. If there were other issues with my car, I would probably get rid of it.
