Default Oil and Coolant Light warning

Hi everyone.
On Friday March the 14.

It's a 2007 Audi A4 3.2 B7 Base

Ever since I've gotten it the oil warning and Coolant warning lights have been on. The car drives and runs smoothly even in sport mode. There's a problem, and I can't seem to find it. Every time I try to start the car it give a me a hesitant rumble. About 5 times now (mostly mornings) it dosen't even want to start it gives me the dead battery and I have to jump start it. Only my oil and coolant light are indicated that there's a problem not sure why ? I changed the oil 3 days ago with 10-30w Not synthetic and it still acts up. The car only has 109k miles on it.

Any help ??

Hello -
Are you sure that your battery is good. alternator?
I have had the oil warning on an older 1999 1.8T that I owned years ago, but that was a sensor and the car started fine.
You mentioned that this has happened ever since you have owned the car, how long has that been?

Mine started doing the same thing on cold starts (where I live, VERY cold starts), but I do not have any warning lights. But after it runs for a bit or if it doesn't sit for hours it starts fine. Which makes me lean more towards a battery issue because it's fine after the car runs and charges up a bit. I say get a new battery and see what happens, that's what I'm doing.
