Check the level, and condition. Not for nothing 6 months is a long time if you are using conventional oil.

Honeslty that looks like a faulty sending unit. If you have a fram oil filter on there that could be a problem too.

my d series did that when it was low on oil. as stated before check your oil level and check for any leaks.

Mine doesn't. Keep your oil topped off. Check it at least every two weeks. I check mine every week.
