Basically i renewed a lot of parts(list below), put everything back together and when my car is in idle the oil pressure light comes on. When i tap the gas pedal a little bit it dissappear, temperature in the car is normal (~90°C). I currently have P0170 and P0135 fault codes, but i had them previously already when i didnt have any troubles with the oil pressure light.
Also there is enough oil, i did an oil change 2 days ago.

What could be the issue here? Faulty oil pressure switch or maybe the oil pump? I also have an oil leak somewhere (always had
When you did the oil change, did you also replace the two smaller o-ring on the "stick"? If these are old and worn, it can cause low oil pressure at idle.
Next would be to have a pressure gauge attached to where the sensor is, and the minimum pressure at idle should be 1.0 bar.

You mean the dipstick where i check oil level? I didnt check there
No, it would be on the plastic cap that the oil filter is attached to per say. They are supposed to be green, but over time will turn black from the oil.
