does anyone know safe oil pressure psi?
It should be around 4 bar at idle or 14.7X 4 in psi. I wouldn't drive it unless you want to replace your engine soon. It sounds like you have a sludge problem or the oil pump is going bad, if you can remove the oil pan and either clean or replace the oil pick up tube, more than likely thats the problem.
when warm mine sits at 30-35 psi, and 80-85 anything above 2k rpm
if ur oil pressure is high get a bilstien engine flush there like 25 buks or somthing, that may help...
plus u get all of the nasty sludge outta ur engine, not to mention your oil return line...

wow! I thought I was doing ok, now it may be back to the drawing board abit.
if 30 psi is the norm at an idle, Iam definately in danger zone thanks alot!
also, what is this bilstein flush?

if you're not having any loud lifter noise and no oil pressure light don't worry about it man. don't go spending $600 on an oil pump change if you don't have to. Your readings are a little low, but not low enough to warrent an oil pump change. if you have a chance get a flush, or do your own with a quart of 50weight and the rest ATF.
