Re: Bogus (?) Oil warning -Reply
The reason I suspected that it is the low oil pressure sensor is that the
pressure gauge inside the car does show normal operating range for the car.
However when I use the Syntec 5W-50, it always shows significantly lower
reading when the engine is hot compared to Penzoil Performax 5w-50, Mobil 1
15w-50 and especially Redline 15w-50. The Redline seem to show on average
slightly higher oil pressure (engine hot) at idle rpm. And so far I never
encountered this problem anymore (last 6k) with Redline 15w-50.
How is it that you suspect the bearings?
