MY PANEL READ, OIL PRESSURE LOW, STOP ENGINE. I RECENTLY HAD MY OIL CHANGED SO I TOOK IT BACK AND THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG. I READ THE MANUAL AND IT SAID IT MAY BE THE COOLANT, ANTIFREEZE. IS THIS POSSIBLE. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE IT NOW. THE OIL VALVE WENT FROM 40 TO 0 WHILE I WAS STANDING STILL AT THE RED LIGHT. PLEASE HELP

Low oil pressure has nothing to do with antifreeze. It does something to do with faulty oil sending unit or faulty oil pump. Faulty sending unit will be about 1 hour fix, but it will take significantly longer for the oil pump. If you are not a handy person, I suggest that you visit your mechanic the first chance you have.
