Default Oil Pressure Probs...

Yesterday my TEMP was really high... my coolant level was off so I refilled. TEMP is okay now... but my oil gauge is going up and down... normally it was constantly at about 55... it went below 40 a few times and up to 70 at one point. This is normal driving... not racing or aggressive. Should I be worried? What could be the issue?

Your oil pressure sending unit might be going bad. Check that first.
