Just recieved my truck back from the dealer after having the instrument cluster repaired. Noticed on the way home that the oil pressure reading was at 120. Not sure if this was the same prior to the repair and I didn't notice it. It normally sits at about 30-60 on start up. At about 1500 rpm it jumps up to about 120 psi. Is this normal or do I need to have them check it out again. I am running Mobile 1 syn and the temp here is in the 50's. Thanks

Thats not right. take it in

Its probably not related to your gauge problem, but verify that you are running a proper oil. Nothing wrong with synthetics but make sure its rated CH-4 or CI-4.
