I hope I understand you right, the oil light, if you have no unusual sounds coming from the motor, it's a bad oil pressure sensor, common thing to go wrong on the 2.7 liter engine; cost $23.49 and replacement takes 10 minutes. As far as your water pump, it's driven by your timing chain which is internal to the engine, what more do you need to know about it and what do you mean by one half is full and the other half is empty?

Thanks bro.Sorry my english is not that good.Well ,there is not unusual sound from the engine.Everythng works perfect.The light appear only when I stop the car and it is not always.
About the water .Does it have ant division? Because I see water for the radiator in one side and the other side is empty.Or its another tank??

Hey there elmiembro if your oil lamp flickers on & off and you have good oil pressure you need this special wire at your oil pressure sending unit the only available at the dealer and the part number is
05017800AA and ask your dealer for a copy of service bulletin 08-36-99 this will fix your problem you can replace all the sending units in the world and still have this problem any qualified Chrysler tech should know this right freaky

thunder, I am sick and tired of you taking pot shots at me and disrespecting me. If you have an opinion, make it w/o insulting me. I don't know what your problem is and why you feel as though you have to question me, but you need to ease up. If I have pissed you off somehow, I'm truly sorry, don't disrespect me in front of the entire world. If you have something to say to me, e-mail me or PM me.

eliembro, the unusual sound, if you hear a ticking, I'd suggest you go to a shop and let them do an oil pressure check, make sure you don't have low oil pressure that could lead to imminent engine failure. The water level you are refering to sounds like the coolant bottle; as long as the fluid is at the FULL HOT mark, you're ok and make sure your fluid is in good condition.
