What should the normal oil pressure be for a 2013 VW Passat S 2.5 engine

Asked by Dk1968FL06 Sep 22, 2022 at 11:43 AM about the 2013 Volkswagen Passat S

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have a 2013 VW Passat with the 2.5 L engine (manual Transmission). I just
had the low engine oil pressure light come on. I changed the oil, changed the
oil pressure sensor no luck. I now have an oil pressure gauge hooked up
and can't find any info on what the normal oil pressure should be. Currently it
jumps to 50 psi at start and then drops to 28 psi after 30 seconds. it will jump
back to 50 psi at 3000 rpm, but then falls back to 28 psi.at Idle.
