Just a quick note for those who may wish to increase their idle oil pressure once the engine is warm.
My 3.4 was running just above a bar with the oil that was in the car when I purchased it. I can't know for sure but I believe it had 5W30 a few months before I bought it.
I've just had the car serviced with Millers 10W50 , and hot idle is a full bar higher, at just under two bars, the engine definitely runs sweeter and quieter from first turn of the key, but this may be due to the plug and coil pack change also done during the service.
(NOTE, for those of you who are happy with one bar (you know who you are!) I'm not suggesting this will affect logivity etc, but it certainly makes me feel better!)
