Default Oil Pressure Light (2000 A4 1.8t)

In the past week on two occasions my oil pressure came on. It blinks three times and the chime sound follows the blinks. Both times it happened I was making a 90 degree turn. My oil level is good and I haven't lost any oil in the last 2000 miles. No leaks as far as I can see.
Has anybody had a similar experience. How serious is this? Should I run to the shop? Should I try to troubleshoot myself?

Default do you have the bigger oil filter?

If you don't have the bigger oil filter you may want to try it. Just reasently, I was told to have it replaced to it befor anything happens to the oil presher. you could probubly ask for it at the audi specialist or tuner shop.
