Did a search and didn't find an exact answer here so I was wondering what fellow Gen3 owners are experiencing for oil pressure at idle- car at operating temp.
Backstory to question, my 2019 auto has been having intermittent issues where if I come to a light, the car will stumble for a few seconds (almost like a ghost cam tune) and in some rare occurrences, will even stall out. I've been paying close attention to the oil pressure at idle on my ngauge and it seems like when it gets in the mid to low teens, it starts experiencing these issues. It has lessened a bit in the colder weather recently which, to me, only strengthens the oil pressure theory.
Lund also says it could be a phaser issue- as he's seen some with random Gen3's. Knowing phasers operate off of oil pressure, this is kind of a 'what came first, the chicken or the egg' question. Are the phasers having issues based on the lower oil pressure or vice versa?
For what its worth I've never seen a 'low oil pressure' light and the car seems very healthy outside of this. Any feedback is appreciated- thanks!
