My oil light flickers when I have ran the car for about thirty to forty five minutes and only when stopped. Also overheating when idling.

Check to see if fan comes on, then have coolant system pressure checked for leaks. Low oil pressure can be either bearings worn out and having to much clearance or a bad oil filter so try changing oil and filter. Use a good filter not one made in China.
