I'm not that low. It's just at the bottom of the acceptable range. It's not like almost gone. I'll go get some oil then.
Thanks

Dane, does a red/yellow light still mean oil pressure if it's only comes on for a couple seconds when I start and turn off the car?
Yes it's the first time. I was told when I bought the car that the oil separator needed to be replaced. Think this is it?
And yes I definitely heard the concern haha

Dunno. Sensor/wiring issue.....or...intermittent low pressure issue. Maybe CCV could cause this. Never heard of it before though....

Cause it's come on when I turned the car on and off for the past week or so but I thought it just meant low oil. I just dumped a quart of castrol synthetic 5w-30 in it and waited for it to cool off so I can see how much is in there now.

I would give it a few hours....or let it sit overnight.

When I got my oil changed, I checked it the next day after letting it sit overnight. It was just touching first measure mark. After I warm the car up, the level is right where it should be. I use BMW 5W-30. Dunno if this means anything, I'm just throwing it out there for consolation in case anyone else was having a similar issue.
I've also had a lot of coffee this morning.
