Default Engine oil temp gauge 1999 A4 1.8T

I just got the 90K service done, A few times I have seen that the engine oil temp gauge goes to max (i.e 325 - 350) any ideas why this is happening. I dont see any waring lights showing up. Coolant temperature is fine.

I belive the guy replaced coolant, new coolant tank all that stuff..

Default Have you checked the oil level?

Unless it's a faulty sensor...something is seriously wrong, and I would not continue driving the car until it's sorted.
