Hi Dougie and welcome to the forum. Not heard anything about that on either forum. The service manual gives these faults if the warning light comes on. So it is not just the oil level but could be a number of reasons why the light comes on. If it is during braking then it could be relief valve or wiring fault. Check the multiplug in the rear of the meter console. Good luck and do let us know what the outcome was.

Engine oil pump damaged
Engine oil screen clogged
Engine oil filter clogged
Engine oil level too low
Engine oil viscosity too low
Camshaft bearing worn
Crankshaft bearing worn
Oil pressure switch damaged
Wiring faulty
Relief valve stuck open
O-ring at the oil passage in the crankcase
damaged
