OIl pressure light it flickers when the car is in drive, especially when I'm doing over 40mph. What could be the problem? Had a complete oil change, plus filter change 3 days ago. Car has never had oil trouble. It's a well maintained vehicle. The guy at Valvoline did say that he noticed a tiny leak though.
