High Oil Pressure (15w50, On Track): 85+ PSI
Was at NOLA yesterday and on front straight noticed that Oil Pressure would peg in the red (high) on front straight, and later refined it to any revs over ~6k. I was able to avoid it by short-shifting rest of the day.
Specifics:
2019 ZLE, M6, all stock, ~3300 miles.
Fresh 15w50, 10qts, PF-64 filter.
5th Track day with this car, reviewed data through Cosworth:
Sebring JAN: High oil PSI's were 80.6, 82.4, 85.9
Barber FEB: 84.1, 77.7, 76
NOLA (yesterday): 89.3, 85.3, 83.5
Reading other threads, some say this is an indicator of pending oil pump failure. Seems rare for a 2019 MY, and I would have thought it would have failed by now, with (5) track days with this condition.
My last ZL1 A10 (running 0W40) seemed to run 50-60 on track. Can anyone share data as to whether this is a 'track only or 15w50 oil condition, or otherwise?
Thanks in advance - TWG1
