help high oil pressure
help high oil pressure
ounds like a pressure release valve is stucksteviewevie I don't think just changing the oil is going to fix that
Actually, I partially take that back, thinking about this some more.
I guess changing the oil and filter is probably worth a try, in case some gunk is blocking the oil flow (or the filter is faulty ?) and that comes out with an oil change.
Just thinking out loud here, but I wonder if they used something to flush the engine, and something has got stuck somewhere and not come out ?

Can't you take it back to them and explain the situation???
When I picked my LS up from Hatfield, it was almost 10mm above the max so it wouldn't suprise me that they have over filled it with oil. Stick some lovely Castrol Edge fully synthetic 0W-30 in it. That's what i've been using in mine and can highly recomend it.
jim really 0w30? how come?
chris i would love to but cant afford there prices now.
steve so pulling the filter should remove any ****
terry how easy is the pump sevice and getting to the valves?
