Oil Pressure

Can anyone tell me the standard oil pressure at idle when hot and cold for a 1.5 T-Sport/Vitz RS...Thanks in advance.

Can no-one help..Will it be in the handbook that comes with the car???

Afraid I don't know Mark.

It's not in the manual for my car either.

Perhaps if anyone has a haynes manual for a Yaris, it could be in there?

it will be in the hanes manual yes, but it does NOT cover the 1.5 TS :P so it wont be in there lol :P

The reason im asking is that on the Defi gauges when the car is fully warmed up( and i mean fully warmed up :D ) the oil pressure goes as low as 1.5psi at tickover, at about 3000rpm the pressure is sitting at about 5psi on the gauge. Just concerned that the 1.5 is pretty low.Engine seems fine and i dont want to go to the trouble of fitting an upgraded pump unless we go for a full rebuild with major work getting done....

On a happier note--a 2.0lt new shape Mondeo Ghia wasnt happy when i was pulling away from him at around 100mph( on a test track obviously) and the car passed its MOT today ad i found a few extra bits like loads of underbody TRD bracing etc while it was on the ramps...The lambda was disconnected and didnt know why until i had a closer look and found it was only the outer of the CAT which was in place--it had no internals at all so it acts like a straight through pipe but looks like a cat to the police and MOT inspectors.. :D

it will be in the hanes manual yes, but it does NOT cover the 1.5 TS :P so it wont be in there lol :P
