The twitching can be caused by an electrical signal minor issue, an oil pressure sensor thats a little worn out, or it could be the thermostat in the oil filter housing adjusting the flow to the oil cooler teeny bits back and forth, its all normal. Sometimes mine will fall to 1.3 bar after I've come to a stop, then it bounces up to 2bar then back to 1.3ish then back to 2 again....this is just the oil thermostat opening and closing and thus the flow/temperature changes. Its all very interesting....
