ZedJohn Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 After a bit of help guys - my oil pressure seems a bit erratic - where should it be on the scale? I took this yesterday at Bedford. It stays at this level at idle but picks up to just after half way when I'm driving it. I've let the engine cool and the oil level is smack in the middle of the dipstick (cleaned and checked again). Any guidance greatfully received! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Hoff Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 Without checking mine I cant say what is is at idle but when driving about (approx 3000rpm) its about 100 psi when cold and 70 when warm so I think what you are seeing is normal.

Trev-the-Rev Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 I'll second that. About 15 - 20 when hot at idle and mid way ish from about 2000 rpm upwards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ATTAK Z Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 These are the Nissan figures for engine oil pressure at an engine oil temperature at 80°C (176°F)] Pressure measured in kPa (kg/cm2 , psi) Idle speed More than 98 (1.0, 14) 2,000 rpm More than 294 (3.0, 43) so yours seems to be Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
