    Hello all,
    350 miles on my new 24 Tundra
    limited.
    While reading about the features on my Tundra I starting looking into the oil pressure meter.
    Is anyone aware if the markings along the meter corresponds with a oil pressure in lbs.?
    I: have never seen this type of oil pressure indication, always have seen a pressure reading in lbs..
    if it doesn't i don't quite understand the purpose on it.

    Any information would be helpful.
    Thanks
    Mark.

    PS- Dealer was unable to help with question.

    The 3/4 bar is roughly 80 psi. That's where mine hangs out until the oil pan gets ~ 100°F.

    When the engine is warm, the needle stays between the 1/4 and 1/2 bars, even though I can watch the psi, via car scanner, fluctuate between 7-12 psi (idling) and ~40 psi under acceleration.

    I noticed the same with mine but was unsure what it was telling me
