was speaking to a mate taday and he's got me worried!the oil pressure on the s3 sits at about 60 when the car is up to temp and idling at around 1k revs. it drops below 50psi when the revs are increased. its always been like this and the car has'nt dropped any oil since i got it.thought it was normal as the car seems to be running ok and the engine has'nt blown up yet! is this normal?
cheers for any advice

funny seems to be the opposite way round with mine,the pressure decreases as the revs increase.will check it out and have a look at the sensor
cheers guys
