Ok, My car was at 220* already warmed up and I am sitting at a red light. My psi was at 70. I forgot what take off was though. I shouldnt have nothing to worry about? THis isnt high at al? If not, forget this post existed.

220 doesn't always correspond with lower oil pressures. However I would be surprised if it read that after you had been driving for a half hour, and idling. My sensor did used to read too high, until I changed it out.
