Does anyone know how long it should to for oil pressure to reach max. Mine takes about 10 seconds for pressure to reach max and for HLA noise to disappear is this normal?

Can Depend on the Oil... If its thinned a little it will do that. Also if the oil filter anti-drainback valve isnt working.

Used to happen to me all the time if I *really* cained the car. Of course thats mid-summer, QLD temps.

Cheers

It was probarbly the timing chain rattling and when you replaced the seal it improved the tensioner which is hydraulic.
