Best Answer
Answer
Bad oil pressure sensor
Excessive engine wear
Rings or valves
Do both a wet and dry compression test to determine if rings or valves are the problem
Weak oil pump
Plugged oil screen

one invaluable tool that might help you in this situation, assuming there are no clattering or knocking noises which signify a significant problem, lets say your oil light is on, but no other symptoms, is to remove the oil pressure sending unit and put a true pressure reading guage on it. This will either show a bad oil pressure sensor or confirm a low oil pressure problem. Compression test or bad rings or valves do not relate to your problem
