oil pressure bar
anymtn replied to anymtn's topic in 996 Series (Carrera, Carrera 4, Carrera 4S, Targa)
My owner's manual says: "With a warmed-up engine and at a speed of 5000 rpm, the engine oil pressure should be approx. 3.5 bar." I thought this was rather odd when I first read it. Like you, I usually see higher pressures than 3.5 bar at higher RPM's. This is entirely consistent with most other cars I have owned, until I wore out the motor anyway. I think what they meant to say that if you don't have at least 3.5 bar at 5,000 rpm, then you have a problem. I should say that I am not a mechanic and and am only speaking from my experience. Gents, Thanks -
New to the board and just bought a CPO 2004 C4S and notice the pressure to be at 5 bar while RPM @ 2-4k. Manual says 3.5 bar @ 5K. is there a pressure/engine problem? :(
