High oil pressure
I have an 01 c5 auto.
About a week ago I parked on a decline for about 1/2 an hour and when I returned and started up th vehicle it stated I had a low oil level.Later that day the error went away.The next morning when I started the car up and drive,I noticed the il pressure was irregularly high and was at 40 psi at idle and 52-54 at highway cruise speed.
Ontop of this,I get the low oil level message come up on my DIC every once in a while and now the oil pressure guage jumps around.When the engine is warm he psi sometimes goes to about 30 psi.I also had a predator tune installed previously the same day when I parked on the decline but never got the low oil level message.
Any idea on whats up.Would a low oil level cause a high oil pressure level?
Lastly and most importantly, is this something I need to be worried about?
