Message	Hi, recently I drove down some poorly paved roads. I am thinking I might have dented my oil pan. I noticed my oil pressure is low. My sender unit is 1 year old with less 4,000 miles of usage so that shouldn't be the issue. I did recently install a NISMO Oil cooler but the restrictor lines are being used. I am showing at idle 12PSI and at 4th and 5th gear on the highway cruising at 60MPH around 30PSI. It seems low, I am going to jack it up soon. My question is should I drive it 100 miles before I get a chance to jack it up? Or do I immediately take care of this? I drove it about 100 miles w this oil pressure situation noticed a sound from the passenger fender.
