What's the problem with the pressure? auto data says it should run at 1.5 bar at 850 rpm but this is running at just under 4 bar?

It will be about 1.5bar at 850 rpm when the engine/oil is fully up to temperature.
When cold the pressure will be high even at idle speed.

As Adam said,

on start up it will rocket to very high pressure but once the engine warms that should drop to around what auto data says.

Sounds fine ot me pal :thumb:
