Oil light flickers when car is hot and idling, only. It goes off when driving. I replaced the oil pressure sensor and the oil is at the appropriate level. There is no unusual engine noise.

If you've replaced the oil pressure switch and it continues to flicker at idle could be the oil pump pressure relief valve sticking. Might consider an engine flush and see what happens
