oil level was fine, had it changed about 500 miles back, but the other day when I switched the car on, i got the "reduce oil level warning" in wife's mk8. Checked oil level with dipstick, level seemed fine. Warning did not come on since. It was quite hot in my garage when warning came on - over 45 degrees celcius - could that explain it?

update: keep getting the warning. Had about 250ml of oil extracted today just to be on the safe side, still getting the warning as soon as i switch the ignition on. Probably need to check the wiring or could be a glitch. Still got about 4000 miles before my next service. Any expert views?
