Oil pressure

[Black00gts]

My oil pressure gauge reads the same when hot and cold and it stays in the exakt same spot all the time,i am no mechanik but isn't it suppost to be a different between hot and cold engine?

Does it move (to zero...) when you turn the engine off? Have you tried a scan tool to read the sensor? If that PID is available with a scan tool.

It depends which oil weight you are using. Mine reads same hot and cold with 5W50, but hot pressure is lower than cold with 5W40.
