HI all,

I can give you mine, I do sometimes have different readings to what others get or max out at.
TD 4.2 Ti engine
Pyro gets up to 580 - 600 (sometimes more) degrees on a long climb on road, about 500 - 550 off road if going hard.
Oil about 55psi at 100k in 5th. 24 at idle, peaks about 85 plus when cold.
Water 70-75 deg C at 100k in 5th, goes up to 95 when on a long climb on or off road.
Still learning my parameters but so far so good. Only had the oil and water gauges for 3 months.

My temps on a 3litre crd are around 90 degrees Celsius for water temp and egt are pretty steady between 350 and 450 with the odd climb to 500

P.s sorry no oil pressure

most gauges use the half way as a normal reading, straight up and down
no two patrols would be the same, similar but not the same.
