Whats the normal oil pressure meant to be, mine was always 60 and now for some reason the its dropped to 30-40, it says in the handbook that this is the norm level, it just seems a bit low because its always been higher. Any ideas?

1 is this on standard guage as they are crap

2 might be time for an oil change

3 are you still using the same oil as before

4 :headvswal if none above im stumped unless there is a pool of oil under the car :rolleyes:

1 - yes

2+3 - it was just filled up with new oil

4 - no puddle yet

 

It might just be the guage, its in the 'norm' range and im not driving it for a few weeks so i'll see how it goes, thanx anyway

mine reads about 7 or 8 when cold goes to 2 when hot japtt

Oil pressure on my cars usually drops slightly with nice clean oil. Sounds fine to me.
