My car (617 300SD) has been showing 0-.2 bar at hot idle for over a year...and 20,000 miles.   Pegs to 3 right away when rev'd. Running strong as ever. I ordered a new sender for $36...I will be installing it when I do my next oil change. I assume it will solve the problem....as the gauge jitters around when I slow down too....
The senders do go bad, and do weird things like show 0 at idle.
