Electrical issue?

So,I have a 2010 TL Sh and as of the last 6 months or so i have barely drove it.Clutch is shot and havent gotten around to replacing it.An issue that just sprung up out of nowhere is all of the lights on my gauge cluster lighting up.Started it up a few weeks ago and suddenly the check engine light comes on.Seconds later the check emissions light comes on then follows the check awd and then the check hill start assist light.Car seemed to run fine so i was a bit confused.I ended up disconnecting the battery to see if everything refreshed and i will state now im no mechanic.I do normal service like anyone else would.The lights did all turn off and came back on about a week later.Any reason these lights would come on all at the same time?

I do have another issue i have been dealing with when it comes to the oil.As im sure everyone knows the “excessive oil consumption” issue with these J37 motors.I do an oil change when im supposed to and get out maybe 2 qts of oil.I dont know where the oil goes and it sure as hell isnt on my driveway.What i have noticed the past month is when i start the car the check engine oil light is on and turns off after about 20 mins.The proper amount of oil is in the motor so i dont get it.I could really use some suggestions on all of this.Thanks everyone.

You barely drove your TL for the last 6 months. Is the battery weak or dying ?

Weak/dying battery is known to trigger all sorts of warning lights and cause all sorts of electrical issues.
