Engine Oil Pressure Gauge
Metric
English
The oil pressure gauge shows the engine oil
pressure in psi (pounds per square inch) or kPa
(kilopascals) when the engine is running.
Oil pressure may vary with engine speed,
outside temperature and oil viscosity, but
readings above the low pressure zone indicate
the normal operating range.
A reading in the low pressure zone may be
caused by adangerously low oil level or other
problem causing low oil pressure.
Caution
Lack of proper engine oil maintenance
can damage the engine. Driving with the
engine oil low can also damage the engine.
The repairs would not be covered by the
vehicle warranty. Check the oil level as soon
as possible. Add oil if required, but if the
oil level is within the operating range and
the oil pressure is still low, have the vehicle
serviced. Always follow the maintenance
schedule for changing engine oil.
