The oil warning light and chime starting coming on a few days ago. Oil has been changed and level is OK. Light does not come on when car is in reverse or when I take my foot of the gas.

Any suggestions?

According to Haynes, when the oil pressure light comes on, the order of things to check are:

1. Low oil level (you already checked)
2. Short in wiring circuit
3. Faulty oil pressure sender
4. Worn engine bearings/oil pump

Hope it's 2 or 3. Hope this helps!

Change the sender unit.

Replacing the sender unit worked for me.
