    Default Ecotec oil pressure average?

    Hey guys, (for those with oil pressure gauges) I'm wondering what average oil pressure readings you blokes are getting?

    My VY Ecotec sits at 60 PSI for the first 20-30 minutes of driving, then drops to between 40-50.

    That's good to know. Mine sounds right then. I'll be interested to see if pressure improves slightly after oil change. Not expecting much difference, as I do 7,000k changes anyway.
