Hi all,
Can someone advise on what the oil pressure should be when revving quite high (6k+) . I'm running the standard Shell Helix oil.
Many thanks

Mine is at the first bar at idle, middle of the gauge when driving at say 2500 rpm (slightly over middle if oil temp isn't in the middle) and around 2nd bar to right of middle when revs are high (I think)?

When cold, oil pressure is middle of the gauge at idle.

Thanks - that's what mine was reading just thought it was a bit high but seems like normal.
Cheers

Cold idle 7-7.5 bar.
Hot idle 2.5 bar.

Under load at revs when hot should be around 6-7 bar.
