[200q20v] RE: [s-cars] Oil Pressure

[Calvin & Diana Craig]

Gary,
	I have oil pressure gauges in my '89 200, 91 '200 and '92 S4 that all read
something different, and one gauge that I know for sure is off in the S4
because it reads 1 Bar without the engine on, my belief is these gauges, or
sending units as I'm not sure which is wrong, were not high on the list of
accuracy priorities in the design.  If you are really worried get a
mechanical gauge and check for sure.

Just curious about this. My 94 S4 runs about 4 bar, with 10w30 at cruising
3000RPM, fully warmed up.. My 200 20V runs about 3 bar under same
conditions. Same engine, why different oil pressure? Curious as to what
other 20V owners have for oil pressure.
