Fred,
Sounds like you're talking about the oil pressure WARNING light, if the light is comming on then you have a SEVERE problem or the sending unit is defective! HAVE it tested as soon as possible!! DON'T WAIT!

The accumulators act with the hydraulic shocks to give the dampening action with the capability of having adjustible ride height. If they are faulty, the car will ride very stiff in the rear. Every time you hit the smallest imperfection in the road you will do a lot of jerking around.
