Yep, I know for sure it is. My gauge and the oil pressure I log shows it. So no, it isnt a bad sending unit at all. This is normal operation for a GM crank driven oil pump. At low RPM's you dont need an insane amount of oil pressure, in order to push higher oil pressure it takes more power from the engine which affects fuel mileage. GM uses a 2 stage pump, runs lower pressure at lower RPM's and then ramps up once the RPM's increase.

Oil pressure should range between 29 and 46 PSI. Lower or higher and something isn’t right.
I lost an oil pump at 17K miles and my oil pressure varied between 20 and 80 psi leading up to the failure as it’s progressive. I’ve done lots of research on this topic and highly recommend a visit to the dealer if your hot oil pressure is below 30 psi or higher than 50 psi. |
