1 Answers
Audi A6 fuel pressure regulating valve is located under the hood, at the upper left corner of the engine. Below are the functions of the pressure regulating valve and the reasons for fluctuating oil pressure. Functions of the pressure regulating valve: The oil pressure regulating valve (also known as the pressure relief valve) is designed to limit the maximum pressure in the lubrication system, preventing excessively high pressure that could damage lubrication system components or cause oil leaks in the oil passages. Reasons for fluctuating oil pressure: Insufficient oil in the oil pan, where the oil level is at the limit position of the oil strainer suction port, or impurities in the oil pipe that are not completely blocked, causing the oil pump to intermittently draw oil, resulting in fluctuating oil pressure.
