Default Where would the oil pressure warning light be on my dashboard?

While driving, i hear 3 beeps. And in the middle of the dash a light starts blinking. Problem is that in the middle of the dash its all messed up so all i see is lines. The beeps and blinking stop after the 3 beeps. Then the light goes away until it beeps again. On off on off then if im driving for some time, it stops completely. Im thinking its the oil, so im going for an oil change first thing tomorrow morning. Hopefully thats it. In the picture in the middle of the dash where it says 66 degrees, thats where the light flashes. Can someone tell me what it can be? Im going crazy right now. Really cant afford to fix a big problem at the moment. https://www.audiforums.com/forum/b5-models-69/warning-light here is the link.

If its red, it could be your oil pressure symbol flashing at you, if its yellow it could be a myriad of things, like low water in your coolant tank, ABS malfunction, low wiper fluid, etc. Red flashing lamps in the center section of the dash are like wreck your engine BAD, most of the yellow stuff is way less bad. Most of those (except maybe the low windsheild washer fluid) beep at least one set of three beeps when they come in. Do you have the ABS, and or brake warning lit up?

Red warnings are 3 beeps, yellow are 1. Take a picture, we might be able to tell you what it is unless your screen is completely busted.
