My mind has been elsewhere this weekend so I haven't done any diagnostics yet. I'm thinking it could be a low idle. When I have it in DRIVE with my foot on the brake, the idle is lower, therefore lower oil pressure. When I have it in PARK it idles higher and the light goes off. So I'm going to adjust the idle up a bit to see if that helps.

have you ruled out oil pump? when its in drive the motor is loaded and drops rpms, which changes the flow of oil. if its too low (weak pump) the light will come on
