Default Low oil pressure until warm up?

My oil pressure gauge on my 04 cayenne s reads 1 for the oil pressure until the car warms up. Then it stays around slightly below 2 and never moves from there. I don't hear any engine knocking nor am I getting a low oil pressure alert. Is this normal?

Thanks in advance.

Davie, are you referring to the gauge to the left of the tachometer? If so, this is the oil temperature gauge as the temps that you describe are quite normal.

lol. That would be it. All this time I thought it was oil pressure and it's oil temp. Well that's one less thing i have to worry about.
