New Car, Low Oil Pressure, Advice Please

Agreed, I am pulling the pan, mainly because it is leaking pretty good, at least I think that is where it is coming from, will be cleaning up this weekend and watching for oil origin, could be front main seal perhaps???

Good to know, idle is ok, but it would appear that @ 3k I should be between 36 and 71 and when at operation temp, I do no see over 25, but like you said, still do not know if that is accurate. Otherwise it has no obvious indication of having low oil pressure, so hopefully it is just a faulty indicator.

If it is still low, I assume no way of telling what is causing it without pulling pan and checking bearings, correct?

Anyway, thanks for your assistance.
