OIL PRESURE LIGHT

My oil presure light in the lux is doing strange things. It comes on while driving but flickers when i hit bumps. If i start the engine and dont drive it it doesn't come on, no matter how hard i rev the engine. It only seems to come on when driving after i go over a bump (hard not to when your car is 4.5 inches lower than stock ) and like i said it flickers over bumps, would it be the light faulty? The engine is the 2.7L 3rz-fe and only 112kms on it, but i dont want to drive it just in case, any help would be great,
thanks

checked ur oil yet? also a baffle would help but usually only
needed in racing...
sometimes the pressure senders go faulty, often its replaced
or tested and then everything else checked
well id check ur oil level for a start,
then maybe blocked pickup, maybe loose wires, etc

OIl pressure switch is screwed, or the wire going to it is earthing out on the block.
