Normally, the oil pressure light only comes on at 1 bar or below which is far too little so you need to check ASAP its not a oil pressure issue. Check the level first. Secondly i would replace the switch if you have a spare and failing that, look at the pump although its quite rare pumps fail.
Considering its coupled with a sluggish feeling car, i have a feeling it could well be a electrical issue. Have fun with that! Painted anything at all that an earth is connected to recently?
I haven't really touched the engine, and what things can be linked with low oil pressure? Oil level is perfect and really fresh, got a switch yesterday so will fit that and I'll check the earths I can see. But I have no idea what to do after that

Yeah I believe it has both, I'll check ECP. If their cheap enough I'll replace them.

My 106 gti had issues like this, but it was obviously running on 3 cylinders sometimes, so probably unrelated. I replaced coil pack and spark plugs and ran better. Might be worth you cleaning them up and testing them too? 5 minute job, and will do it some good anyway.
Map sensor is around £50 :/
