Car has 200Kmis (centennial event was last week ...) Had my mechanic change the oil ... now pressure is very HIGH ..!! Before pressure was about 3 bar, falling as the car warmed to about 2. Now it is over 4 when idling, and a little less when warm at idle. The mechanic says he put in 10-40W oil. I'm accustomed to oil pressure being sensed at a remote location in the head, so can't see how an incorrect or incorrectly installed filter could cause, but I'm not sure in this car ... what do you think?
