Low Oil pressure indicator
2011 GS @ 840 miles on the clock. While coming into work this evening, I noticed the low oil pressure indicator was on. Pressure on guage read 40 psi under normal driving and around 32-ish at full stop. I remember reading somewhere that during break-in, this is normal. Has anyone else seen this happen? thanks..bear with me here, im a noob and this is my first vette.

OIL PSI LOW warning NOT normal, although guage psi reading is. Are you sure it wasn't an Oil Level Low warning? The engine will shut itself off if the oil psi gets too low (to keep you from siezing the engine).
Warranty will cover it, take it to the dealer (if it wasn't the oil level low).
