Oil Temp Gauge going up when accelerating

[Toad]

Just noticed on the motorway the oil temp is at around 70 when stationary goes down to under 30 but goes up on acceleration - is this a case of low oil or is it normal as i haven't noticed it before

 

thanks

Its oil pressure not temperature

[Keyser]

Do you mean oil pressure?

 

If so normal but check your oil any way it can't hurt.

 

No temp gauge in a standard Zed is there? I don't have standard clocks.

As said before, it's an oil pressure gauge (notice PSI on gauge face) and yes it does tend to move up and down dependant on how fast/slow you drive
