0 Oil Pressure
I am getting increasingly concerned about 0 oil pressure the first 5 minutes of operation of my S.
As the motor warms the pressure builds and is normal.
Could this be how M1 0/40 reads? Does P's recommendation of not letting car idle (to drive off immediately) have anything to do with this?
Or is my mule broke...

Torag, I'm not disputing what you're seeing, but no oil pressure for several minutes after starting would destroy any modern engine in a few starts. My Turbo doesn't have an oil-pressure gage, it has an oil-temp gage. Your S has a pressure gage?
