What should the oil pressure be on a iveco lorry?

I have a 7.5t Iveco 75e15 lorry and the oil pressure when running gooes down to 2 bar . It had oil change and filters 1500miles ago . The pressure seems i think to be getting lower , but im not sure!

stop worrying!!!....on those Ivecos its normal for the pressure to drop to around 2 bar on tick-over and only as high as 4 bar the rest of the time

Just wanted to share my experience.
Mine runs at 4 bar but does go less when idleing. I had an oil change and synthetic oil was put in it which made my oil pressure gauge go up and down like a rev counter. I was then told by a different commercial vehicle mechanic it should have heavy duty turbo diesel oil and not synthetic unless it had been run on synthetic from new, so got it changed back and its ran better since. Interesting though my pressure has gone down too recently so will be interested to read your replies
