Put the car on stands to get underneath and take a look. Behind the rear
main seal there is oil streaming along the length of the tranny. Looks like
it has cleaned up the tranny nicely. (is that a sign of the leak ?) I'm
wondering if a rear main could cause loss of 1 litre of oil in 500km along
with the oil pressure indication issue?
I was seeing fluctuating oil pressure with drops below 2 at idle.and
starting near full pressure on gauge and simply bleeds off pressure as the
car warms up.
