You might want to have the oil pressure checked with a mechanical gauge. The oil light system can be a pain on your car, it uses two sensors, one on the end of the cylinder head & one on the oil filter housing. If I remember correctly the one on the filter housing would be the culprit in your case. The sensors are different so be sure to get the right one. Sometimes the systems just go bad, in that case most people will run a simple light to the sensor on the head & eliminate the dynamic system's electronics.

Also try running thicker oil ( 10w 40) Older 2.0's tend to loose oil pressure at higher miles (100k plus)
