Maximum Engine Oil Pressure - Greazzer - 06-13-2013
Does anyone know the maximum oil pressure from the OM617.9XX engine ?
I know the gauge pegs at 3 BAR, but what is the "real" pressure, and in particular, what is the maximum pressure possible ?

Somewhere around 110 psi. It's determined by the relief valve in the oilpump.

RTFM says 7 bar. ;-)

Definitely pegged high a little 100 psi gage I installed on my remote oil filter setup.
