Had the cossie a few months now,
not sure if i should be worried about the oil pressure or not...
it seemed ok when i got it... would be about halfway up the indicator at warm idle... (is that ok?
)
now i had a service not long after i got it and since then the pressure has been a bit lower at warm idle (prob about ta third of the way up the scale gauge. is this ok?!
as soon as you accelerate of generally when you are cuising along the pressure is just below the 5bar mark (i pressume this is right.)
just after a bit of clarification really and if it is a problem whats liekly to be wrong?
