Thanks for the info. Id rather add 1-2 qts extra and see if this helps and eliminate the oil feed issue. This would be going from 7qts with filter change to 9...... if i add 2 more. Im still in the safe zone is that correct?
I am concerned about risking runaway. ill report back on this. Ill do this first and see what the results.
Pressure relief valve spool was fine. Found no scratches.
ill try jacking the discovery from the back check.
If after adding the oil the oil pressure issues go, I will pull the oil pan and check the bearings. Im not sure how long the synthetic oil would protect the bearings without oil pressure.

The FLIA oil filter ive been using consistently in all my cars 3x 03 discoverys, aerosatar 98jetta tdi for over 20 years and can attest to its quality.
