by flashing I am assuming it blinks when you come down to an idle. Most of the time this is bearing wear or sometimes oil filters especially Fram are prone to this. with your mileage. i would probably say it is bearing wear due to miles. you can try a heavier weight like 10w30 if you are not using it already, but no heavier than that.
