Should I be concerned and maybe switch to one of the more expensive 5W 50 offerings like Liqui Moly Molygen 5w 50? Ford, Redline, and Mobil One also offer 5w 50 full synthetics. T6 has always given me great service in my TDI's.
All the OM 606 conversions I do seem to run at the same oil pressure as yours. I also use the same oil, never had any problems. What size oil cooler hoses are you using, should be -12 AN.
That's good to hear. I do run big 12an hoses. I'm running a thermostatically controlled oil cooler (don't know what setting I should use) I got from Summit Racing but it's bypassed right now as I had an ac line blow and puncture it. What oil cooler are you using and recommend?
