Hi all - I'm trying to find out the expected oil pressure on a 3.0TD engine.
My oil light came on the other day and since then I've replaced the oil sensor near the turbo and oil resistor in the cab. I'm waiting on the correct oil sensor near the starter to arrive.
Despite changing the above and unplugging the sensor near the starter, the oil light still lights up once the engine is running.
I've just put the oil pressure gauge on the top sensor unit bear the turbo and the readings I'm getting are:
Idle = 85/90 PSI or 6 Bar
Rev to 2,000 = 100 PSI or 7 bar
Rev to 3,000 = 115PSI or almost 8 bar
Are these figures ok or is it running high? Cant find any definite figures online for this engine, so appreciate you're help.
Thanks
