Next time you do your oil change, change out the sensor since it's on the bottom of the oil belly pan. You should see the bottom of the oil sensor on the pan belly and it's like 2 Torx screws I think. The part isn't too expensive either at like 60 or 70$ I think

I think I changed mine when I first got my B8 S4 at 91k. I'm at 125k now and haven't had an issue. I bought an extra because I think a couple people had issues with the sensor going out.

Also suggest buying a real dipstick to manually check your oil the old fashioned way, for piece of mind.

Yeah this is a common occurrence on this motor so don't worry it's not just your bad luck!
