hey, does anyone know what the oil pressure should be on an vw 1.9td engine when its hot? at idle mine runs at about 15- 20 psi. S
is this at idle? normally diesel engines have higher oil pressure than their petrol counterparts, but around 25-35 psi at idle should be good, maxing out at around 60. any lower than 10 and there is some serious bearing wear, and below 6-7 then big problem with either oil pump, oil level or bearing wear.
