Started having problems with check engine light and oil light, did oil change at the end of the season and everything started going wrong. Gone over everything twice can't find anything. I use the shop manual as my reference. Wondering if I should just take it to a dealer, warranties are still valid I believe. Any tips or clues.

I did the oil change started it everything was fine then oil light came on i killed the engine pushed it home about two miles. Did another oil change to double check the filter was good and no metal in oil. new filter and oil again both plugs pulled each time and yes 2.64 quarts. then i road it again no oil problem but the check engine light came on after about 5 or 6 miles. i just took it home and check oil levels everything seemed ok.
