First, check your oil level and make sure it's not too low. If it is, top it up with the recommended oil. If the oil level is fine, the issue could be with the oil pressure sensor. It's located near the oil filter and can be replaced easily. If the problem persists, it's best to take your car to a certified mechanic for further diagnosis.

Another possibility could be a clogged or faulty oil pump. This can result in low oil pressure and trigger a warning. It's recommended to have your oil pump checked and replaced if necessary every 100,000 miles. Also, make sure to use high quality, recommended oil for your Audi A7.

In some cases, the issue could be with the oil pressure relief valve. This valve helps regulate the oil pressure and if it's faulty, it can cause warnings to appear. If you suspect this is the problem, it's best to have a professional take a look and replace the valve if necessary.
