looking for information on noisy lifters , oil pressure dropping from 28psi to 12psi but pump and pick up is ok heard was common problem with vls
![]()
the oil pressure goes down a lot on mine from a cold start as the oil gets warmed up
if the lifters are only noisy on starting this suggests the need for an oil and filter change
have you tried hooking up another oil pressure gauge.....a lot of vl dash oil pressure gauges like to flicker.....
Click the scales.....you know you want to!!!!
just get a new oil pressure switch or gauge and if it doesnt solve the problem then look for the actual proble, could be something stuffed in the oil filter
my web sitestuff on the XF throttle body conversion, calais interior and lots of other junk!
