Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Did that , came on twice more ..........?
I'm sure others who are more knowledgeable will chime in, but I believe the light you are referring to can be caused by a bad or going bad oil pressure sending unit. A cheap part, but kind of a pain to replace. Several threads here on it. That being said, I'd still probably get it checked out. If oil levels are ok, you should be fine.
Totally common. Expect to replace it every few yrs or tens of thousands of miles

Happened to me a year ago. Turns out the oil pressure sender units are notorious for doing that. If your dipstick shows you have adequate amount of oil I wouldn't worry. I did nothing to mine and hasn't happened again.
