I am, at all times. I’m hearing the whirring sound you mentioned in one of your posts. Mine is a 2021 m340i, so oil pump was never a concern. Struggling with dealers as they want to see the engine light or an idrive message before they take me seriously. My oil pressure psi hits 110 at times (at 1800-6000 rpms ) which I’ve communicated and find odd but I’m not sure what the normal range is. Other posters have indicated up to 83 psi on full throttle.

If your over 100psi I would definitely consider a pump change, the pump has a plastic surround and the more psi that is put on it than it was designed for, the more likely you’ll have a catastrophic oil pump failure.

Even though mine is a 2021, this is also what I’m leaning towards, an oil pump issue. Will test out a friend’s G20, have my Indy mechanic friend take a look and then go back to BMW. Right now they don’t want to touch it since there’s no engine light on. Thank you for the info and tips.
