It is indicating you have a low oil level in the engine.

SOURCE: oil change light

Turn the key on. Observe the odometer. Is "ODO" displayed? If not, push the trip meter button until "ODO" is displayed, with the total mileage travelled shown.
Turn the key off.
Push & HOLD the trip reset button until advised to release it.
Turn the key to "ON" (do not start engine)
Observe the ODO display.
You should see 5 dashes, then 4, then 3, then 2, then one, and finally, five zeros.
The original mileage that you observed should be redisplayed.
Release the trip reset button.
The proceedure is now complete.

SOURCE: where is the oil filter on the 2009 Toyota corolla

I assume that you have a 1.8 engine. The oil filter is in a round metal housing under the engine; you have to remove the housing to access the cartridge type oil filter; the 1.8s do not have a "spin-on" filter.

SOURCE: Orange check engine light fpr 2005 toyota corolla

An orange check engine light means there is an electronic failure in the engine control system. It could be anything from a loose fuel cap, to a bad sensor on the engine. It is not an emergency, but you should get it checked out. A red engine light is an emergency and requires you to immediately stop the car. Yellow is a warning.

You mean the message`'oil change overdue' or the RED WARNING LIGHT looks like Aladdin's lamp?

My 2003 toyota corolla oil light is on and off and is making a rattling noise

Hi Alicia,
What you are saying is actually terrible news. The flashing oil light means there is a problem with your oil pressure. It could be just a bad oil pump or possibly a low oil condition as well. The rattling sound you here, combined with the flashing oil light is probably telling you that a rod bearing or two maybe a main bearing has spun which either one of those could cause the blinking oil light as well. My suggestion to you is DON'T DRIVE IT ANY MORE until a mechanic with knowledge of inside engines can look at it. Either way it isn't a cheap problem to fix unless you are married to a mechanic. Sorry for the bad news.

Red oil light appears

WARNING! THis could be some problme of OIL LEVEL LOW, check it and refill if is necesary. Keep running your engine in this condition could damage other components or engine itself.

If the oil level is OK, then could be some problem with the oil sending unit or oil pump.

Hope this helps; also keep in mind that your feedback is important and I`ll appreciate your time and consideration if you leave some testimonial comment about this answer.

Thank you for using FixYa, have a nice day.

My toyota corolla nze 2002 has a rattling sound in the gear box

SInce any noise from within the engine/gear box cannot be taken lightly, it is important that you will need a good look from a service shop. If you have been carrying out the scheduled service in accordance with Toyota timings, there will not be an issue. You could check out if the noise is external,otherwise get you car to the authorised Toyota centre for an estimate. This will be better than trying out/ stipping and then waiting for spares. I hope my advise is helpful. good day

2002 corolla (now 91000 miles) makes rattling sound

Thats good that you are getting a second opinion. A Toyota dealer will be able to check it and see what the noise may be. See what they come up with. I dont think a worn timing chain or guides would cause a low oil pressure problem. But, if it does indeed have low oil pressure, that is a serious problem.
