Oil pressure questions
I recently installed an oil pressure gauge (from a 4KS) and associated sending unit (from a CGT)
on my 87 4KCSQ. When I start the car cold the press. pegs (5+ bar). As the car warms up the
pressure drops to about 2 bar at idle. However, anything over 2200 rpm and the gauge pegs back at
5 bar. Is this normal? Should there be this much fluctuation in oil pressure over the rev range??
Or is my pieced together oil pressure setup a little off.
BTW - Why didn't Audi put an oil pressure gauge in the 4K in the first place?!!? Seems the diff
lock console could have been modified a bit to allow one.....
TIA
