    Weird Oil light issue

    OK so I have noticed this now maybe 2 or 3 times now and its pissing me off

    When I turn a corner hard or slam my brakes on the oil light beeps and starts buzzing and then goes away after a few secs.

    If I turn a corner softly or brake normally it doesn't go on, wtf

    Checked the oil and its full and seems ok could it be anything else?

    Help is appreciated

    Cheers Steve

    I had something similar in the Audi for a while, but I was low on oil. I filled it up, and it stopped.

    Don't know if that's much help though.

    Well I could try putting some oil in but when I checked the oil it was fine, more than likely it will probably be the case.
