Most likely it's the sending unit for the oil pressure. Replace that first. If that doesn't solve the problem, then you might need to tear into the engine, but the sending unit is a cheap and easy repair that should be suspected first.
The idle rpm's are governed by the engine computer. You can't adjust it.

Only other part involved in the idle speed is the idle air control motor. If yours isn't operating properly it should generate a fault code.
