Message Well today checked it again. Changed oil and used redline 5w40 and new nissan oil filter. NOthing changed at all, the sound is still there but a little quiter. Got a sthethoscope and get it allover the engine. And
the sound comes from the oil pump. Cant say if it is the valve relief or the pump itself but it sounds there. Also it sounds very loud at the oil filter too. As the oil press drops and the temp rises the noise comes quiter but still there if i rev it over 3k. What could it be? Faulty relief valve? I'll instal an aftermarket oil press gauge just to confirm the strange values i see now
