Hi Henrik

I get about 35psi at idle -40 psi at speed when hot or cold. Doesnt use oil and doesnt smoke. I use high viscosity Castrol GTX 20W50 as our climate is very hot. I do not worry too much and just enjoy driving. My other car (Chev truck with 235 si straight 6) has serious pressure issues (very worn)but i just drive carefull and relaxed. It has lasted for the last 2 years. Hope you get it sorted!
