low pressure

[Ghost_92TSi]

I have had an oil pressure issue since I got my car fixed by a shop. The head and everything they said was good. I was dripping oil and it turned out to be the return line gasket. I was putting a quart every 3 days or so. The car ran good after but now I'm seeing low pressure halfway from the bottom to the 3k rpm mark all the time, except when I START it cold it will go up to the first line. I'm still losing oil and my car is slower then ever but you can still hear the bov in the recir. tube. Any ideas?

BTW I checked the shaft for play once and it seemed good though I am going to try again. There is traces of oil on the pass. side of the block.

The only way to know for sure is to hook up a known good gauge, preferably a mechanical one and go from there. Is the engine making any noises like a humming or ticking?

The engine is making nothing more than the normal lifter tick, I am losing oil somewhere however. Found a small vaccum leak think it might of helped a little with the power loss, tho testing it out from going the speed limit to a little gas just got me a ticket wrong place wrong time as they are trying to catch drunk people at this time. I was able to check the turbo there is no play at all, I can't get a good look at my feed line. but there is oil like I said behind the turbo, possible take pictures tommorrow.
