Is a diesel engine oil pressure of 8 bars normal?

[MacMaddox]

Diesel engine oil pressure of 8 bars is not normal. The normal range is 3 to 5 bars, and around 1 bar at idle. The reasons for low oil pressure are as follows: Insufficient oil level: This situation is relatively easy to handle—just add the same type of oil. Contaminants in the oil: If there are contaminants in the oil, they can clog the oil lines, leading to low oil pressure. In this case, the oil must be replaced. Oil is too thin: If the oil is too thin, its sealing performance is poor, and the oil can easily leak through gaps, resulting in low oil pressure. In this situation, the oil must be replaced with a higher viscosity grade. Oil pressure sensor failure: When the oil pressure sensor is damaged, it can easily misjudge the oil condition. In this case, professional assistance is required to resolve the issue.
