Oil Pressure at idle
bighouse84 posted a topic in 996 Series (Carrera, Carrera 4, Carrera 4S, Targa)
I am looking at two Carrera's for sale. In one photo at idle, the oil pressure is about 1.5 maybe 2 at about 900 RPM. This car is a 2003, 996 coupe C-2. The other is a 2001 Carrera cab C-4. In the photo at idle, (aprox RPM is also 900) the oil pressue gauge is reading about 3.5. I have an interest in buying one of the cars. What should the oil pressure be at idle on these cars? Is the low oil pressure (What seems to be low to me) a sign of some engine problem on the C-2, 2003 car? Neither seller reports any engine oil leaks, or problems. Thank you.
