My abarth comes up with this message every now and again. It pops up on the dash for a fraction of a second, then vanishes. Took me a while to catch it so I could read it. If it's like that, I'd guess a loose connection. On abarth models you get an oil pressure guage in the dashboard. It stays at 6 bars out of six, dropping to 4 really hot and at idle.
I'd suggest if yours isn't really intermittent go back to the garage that serviced it and ask them what's up. Oil level is vital on all engines, I run mine right on the max mark warm, as in run the engine, then turn off and let it sit for 5 mins, then check.
The warning could be nothing, but low oil pressure can be a sign if big bills to come.
An old motor trader trick was to use a much thicker oil which holds higher pressure so no warnings come up, was common in the days of real gauges on the dash of all cars.
So maybe your garage used a thin oil. Most European cars run 10w40 all year, with some bods going thinner or thicker depending on the cars age and mileage.
