Default Oil light

Audi B6 3.0ltr convertible. Oil light has started coming on flashing and beeping, then goes off, then a while later ion does the same. Its got plenty of oil in it and going to do an oil change asap.

got same car and engine and had both errors

Is it oil level or oil pressure ?

if it is the oil level light it will be the sensor, its at the front of the car underneath you can get a replacement for less than $10 from China.

If its oil pressure light it could be the sensor (next to filter) or it could be your filter is getting clogged (that is what caused mine)
