Oil Pressure - warm tickover..?


Recommended Posts

Posted

Just wondering what the collective OP looks like, mine's hovering at just under 30PSI on warm tickover - does that seem a little low..?

 

(that's just shy of the 1st marker really)??

 

Thanks all :)

Same as mine - absoultely fine. Will go up a bit after an oil change.

 

BTW the manual specifies 14 as the point at which to become concerned - as measured during a pressure test :)

different oil will give different reading. Mine currently hovers on the first mark when warm, previous oil was little over 0 when warm. Not sure what oil was in the previous time...

 

Just make suer you let it warm up, running it at 120psi aint doing it no favours ;)

A little over 0 whatever the oil and even if it is very old is too low

Good :) Mid-way between 0 and 30 is obviously 15 :lol: but that is the cut-off below which it is worth getting a pressure test done at the dealers. This is simple and it might just be the gauge in that situation anyway
