Go back to Peugeot and tell them they got it wrong?

This might be complete nonsense but....
I did my first oil change on the 406 last week.
I'm always hyper-careful starting for the first time with an empty filter, not letting it tick over until I've got oil pressure.
Couldn't find an oil pressure warning light :shock:
2002 HDi 2.2 Exec Estate, (2008-12) (wonderful)
2003 HDi 2.2 6-speed Exec Estate (2012-19) (also a gem)
2009 Citroen C5 2.0 HDi VTR+ Estate (godawful heap)
2008 BMW E91 330i touring (great fun - murdered by a reversing SUV)
2007 BMW E91 325i touring (slower smoother quieter)
