[QUOTE="mike.s, post: 603841, member: 13548"] Scratch what i put above - let it idle for a while to get properly hot up to 80 degrees and the gauge i have is actually showing less than 0 bar although it does rise when you rev it. It did rise nearly a bar though when cold at idle so the improvements i made to the oil pump install had an effect. Factory oil light is still out though and not flickering or anything. Can`t understand it at the mo. I`m using a second hand off ebay 10 bar VDO pressure gauge which came with the 10 bar dual pole sender - sender is not vdo though by the looks of it and made in hungary so I`m going to try another gauge and sender tomorrow to eliminate that before drastic measures are needed..
