depends on the milage. in drive with the brakes on the engine idles lower than in park or neutral. My 240 with 350,000 km flickers at idle if I use 10W 40 and doesn,t if I use 20W50. Low oil pressure is one of the symptoms of and high milage engine. Or like the other guy said it might be the sender. no big either way as the engine needs pressure when working more than at idle.
