Yellow Triangle with Exclamation Mark..???
(1)SO I was driving on the freeway for about 20 minutes, and got onto streets a yellow warning triangle light with exclamation mark came on. WTF does this mean??
(2) Also, I get a message on my cluster stating that the car needs to be on level surface to check the oil level. Why does it tell me to do this when I am not even trying to check the oil level??
HELP

I'm going to guess here from reading my W209 OM.
(1) This is the yellow ESP warning light flashing.
Cause: ESP or traction control is active, because at least one of the wheels has reached its tire grip limit. Were you aware of wheelspin?
(2) That message is standard if you tab around to that diagnostic display. It also advises a delay before the oil level will be displayed. Just ignore it.
