I have a little problem. I hope this wasn't covered anywhere else. Anyway, I just did an oil change and ever since then my oil light has been coming on whenever I'm stopped and my rpm's are low. I checked my oil and it is fine. Whenever I accelerate at all the light goes away. This happens about 10 minutes of driving. If anyone can help me it would be great.

Yah, sounds like an oil pressure problem to me. What viscosity of oil did you put in, 10w-30 or which? If you put an oil that's very thin it may be your problem, thicker oils can increase your oil pressure.
