Could just be the a malfunctioning sensor in the engine. I would recommend taking it to a mechanic just to make sure.

Is there noise like it's not getting enough oil? Could be the oil pump is not putting out the right pressure, could be sludge buildup. Does it run a little hot? Is the correct oil filter in place?
