Finished installing a vdo oil pressure gauge (150psi) from an audi into my 1.6td. Dead Cold: Idle - just below 60psi Warmed up: Idle - ~15psi 2k - ~30psi 3k - ~45psi 4k + - ~60psiAre these readings acceptable? If my oil pump is shot, is a 1.9td pump an upgrade for my car? p.s. - I tried using the search feature, but I can't get relevant threads by searching 'oil pump'??
If your electric gauge shows a pressure drop when you turn on your headlights, you might check all of your grounds.
