Hey ladz,

just a quick question...

where abouts should my oil pressure gauge sit?

there is a point at 4kg/ and 8kg/ and one in between... about 6kg/

most of the time it sits on about 6kg/ but at idle sometimes it drops to the 4kg/ point and sometimes it may get a little bit above the 6kg/ point more towards the 8kg/ point...

it never goes above or below the 4kg/ or 8kg/ point... so is it normal to dance in between depending on wether your at idle or on the highway or something..?

any advice would be great.

im using Mobile 1, but it is 1000km overdue for a oil change....

im going to drain and flush all the Mobil1 and put in this new Penrite 5 fully synthetic stuff.... apparently that is the best oil around...

so it may be better when i do the change..

so what should it be sitting on normally...?

what is the consequence of the oil pressure being slightly higher than normal?

damage?

      If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Before I get to the test day, just to finish off the android head unit. This is a demo from car start up....the standard/host system takes a few seconds to boot (same as all v37) but Android comes up quickly. In this vid I'm using the delivered launcher but have set the default to Agami since which is easier to navigate when if use primarily 5 apps. You can see the host system still takes over when required eg putting it in reverse, and you can switch between Android and not by holding the back button 3 sec. It is pretty responsive (fast) but you can see I had to press harder than expected a couple of times.  I still have the phone connected to the stock system, and that also seamlessly takes over Android music playing. v37-android-demo.mp4 The bigger reason that I put this in though is so that I can use Ecutek directly on the head unit. That gives me a dash with logging (up to 20MB only), high and low value warnings on any parameter etc etc. I've run a USB cable from the Ecutek OBD dongle to a USB input on the unit, easy. v37-ecutek-demo.mp4   The unit did freeze on the launcher the other day, I think Agami was trying to verify the license when it didn't have a data connection...will monitor and report back if there are any other problems but so far I'm very happy with the upgrade.
