Oil pressure
When i start my car up when its cold it goes up to about 50-70 psi. But after it warms up and I drive it when it is just idling it goes to like 10-12 psi it the okay for a D16Z6 what could cause it. My car is turbo too

same thing for me... 80psi at startup in the morning... and 10 psi @idle after driving.

Re: Oil pressure (J337_UNIT)
My engine has a low pressure problem. In order to keep it around 70 Kpa, I had to raise the idle to 1100 rpm. And even then sometimes if im crusing on the highway and then there is traffic and I coast it even drops below to 40-50 Kpa.
Anyone have a problem like this?
