Question Buzzer from the car

Hi, I have a question, I know when we redline our car a buzzer goes on, unfortunately i have the buzzer turned on and buzzed when I steered hard on turns, the oil icon on the idiot lights turns on and buzz as I turn hard left and right or making a very steep turn, the icon that is next to the fuel light and battery, can anyone turn me what is going on?


I was wondering is my engine oil is low?
thanks

So you have a warning light that says LEVEL with a picture of an oil can, and a loud warning buzzer, and your first thought was to post on a forum instead of checking the oil level!? Yes it's low!

Seriously man, I fear for your car...

The oil *swooshes* to the side, making the sensor detect none for like half a second, so that goes off. No biggie, as a lot of our cars do that. As for the other light by the fuel and battery, I have no clue and the car's outside, in the cold, locked. If it's not answered tomorrow I'll check

That only happens when the oil is low. Some might consider that a "biggie"...

It doesn't necessarily need to be changed, it just needs to be checked. Change if it's been 3000 miles since the last change, top it up if it hasn't.
