oil warning light/buzzer



I was planning to replace the timing belt this Monday,
but somthing else has come up with my 87 16v. After
about fifteen minutes of normal driving the oil light
began to flash and a buzzer goes off with it. My older
scirocco has never done anything like this, even low
on oil. I did check the oil and the level looks good.
If anything, there may be a little too much oil in
there (it goes just barely over the top line). The oil
was changed about 500 miles ago, and was done at one
of those Tires Plus places. The oil temp looks good at
around 80-90 C. I do not have an owner's manual for
this car, and no Bentley yet. What could this alarm
mean if the oil temp. and level looks good? Is there
somthing going wrong with the oil pump? Have only had
this car a little over a month now. 

TIA
87 16v
85 8v
