The most likely cause is low oil pressure due to a blocked pump intake gauze filter which is on the end of the pump . For some reason on the later cars a jelly like substance forms whilst the actual oil looks fine .
I would take the pump out take the filter off the end and clean it , clean out the housing , also replace the main filter behind a plate above the pump , then refill with new oil .
If the fault has been there for a while the pump will have worn out due to running starved of oil .
