high oil presure volvo 5.0

[melgnar]

hey all,
hi have a 2007 volvo 5.0. with 70 hours.
when I fire it up it runs fine the temp is right at 175 but the oil guage reads 75psi this is at idle rpms. When I rev it up it jumps up to 80psi. after about 20 minutes of running I eventualy get and audible alarm.
Any ideas? I check the oil its right at the safe line and looked fine.

Install a mechanical oil pressure gauge on the engine and see what it says.
