Tweaked S70 T5 oil pressure..
Anyone else with an oil pressure gauge installed on their cars? Am wondering which oils you use and the types of PSi you see when first started with the oil cold, once warm and on idle and when giving them a damn good thrashing.
My S70 T5 is now on 172k miles (ex police) but still runs and pulls like a dream, but the gauge now sits around 5 to 10 on warm idle (norm op temps), 30 to 40 on the move (possibly 50 when spanked), and 70 to 80 when stone cold and first started up. I assume this could be oil pump related, sensor related, or the dreaded oil pump pick up seals....or, it could be normal? I did change the oil and filter a while back and went fully synth 10-40 magnatec. There are no other issues engine wise.It runs over 300 bhp apparently if it makes any difference. |
