Re: 1999 S70 GLT Ticking Sound

Thanks abscate. I also noticed with the oil gauge installed, when the engine is cold, oil pressure goes up to about 75ish... almost near the end of the gauge (80 is the max in the display)... but when the engine has reached normal operating temp it settles at 25-35 when idling... increases when rev'...
