Again oil light coming on at idle in V6

I posted this before and I had this looked at by the dealer, and they changed oil, checked for sludge, and couldn't find any. They checked the oil pressure switch and it works fine, they checked for error codes, and none found. The next step of removing the oil pan was quoted to cost $600-$700.
The light comes on very intermittently, yesterday was the first time in 2 weeks (since the oil change). It comes on at idle after driving and sitting in traffic for about 20-30 minutes. First it flickers, then gets more steady and then the triangle warning comes on. It goes off as soon as I make the revs go up just a touch, to about 1000rpm. Are there any other things to consider? Is the oil pan drop a possible DIY job? Why does it cost so much?
thanks for any suggestions -- Erwin
