Oil Pressure

[RT-AWD]

On the way home from JNZ Tuning yesterday, i noticed a oil smell checked oil pressure it was low, accelerated it went up, idle now surges. Is this the oil pump gone bad? I saw no white smoke at all, no clattering, and no oil leak either. I'm begining to think this car will never run right.

Oil pressure is supposed to be low at idle, so that's not a problem. If the pressure is between the two "normal" lines at cruising, then your pump is fine. How's your oil level?

Oil level is full. The oil pressure was at zero and then shot up as i acceled but it seems to have gone, but now in its place is an idle surge that i can sometimes make go away by bliping the throttle kinda hard.

My IAC motor was bad. I took it out, made it so it was stuck out put it back in, adjusted the BISS, and it now idles fine. It's just gonna suck starting it cold.
