5.7 Tundra oil gage fluctuating

Hi guys, i just got a 2007 5.7 tundra and the oil pressure move pass the center when engine is cold or when I down shift for more speed, i just replaced the sending unit but still the same. is that normal on this trucks?

 

It will fluctuate depending on engine rpm. Should be just above or below center. Right at center when cruising. Mine never goes above or below 1/4 and 3/4 marks.

 

Makes sense to me that the pressure could be higher when the engine and oil are cold or RPM is higher.

 

Mine has done the same thing on both Tundras I've owned, so it seems normal.

 

Absolutely normal.

 

Yes completely normal to have it above or below when doing anything but cruising.

 

Thanks guys for the reply

 

When you down shit do you leave skid marks!

Based on your temp gauge it looks like your not in the “cold start mode”. We’re missing the RPM side to get the full picture here but even when warm I’m not sure I go past the middle mark.

 

What was your rpm? Have you checked your oil level to make sure it’s good?
