I'm looking at a 94 S350D (yes, I know, I can buy it right and I have a spare 603) with 100K miles on it and I have a question about the hot idle oil pressure. Idling at 600rpm, 85*C in park the OP is 1.3 bar. Too low? Not sure what oil is in it. Any increase in rpm and it jumps up as I think it should. Is 1.3 ok? Or is it a little low?

My 603 in my 124, with 340K on the odo. idles at the same pressure.

TIA

It's fine.

If it's the only anomaly, I'd live with it. I have to wonder how much lower it will go on a hot day after a hard drive.
