All 124's and 126;s and later are. The early 201 was not, all 123's are not.

At what point did the oil pressure gauge go to electrical? My 78 240D has a pressure tube going to the gauge from a fitting on the oil filter housing (IIRC).

Haven't bothered to find out how the '91 300D gauge works - but mine has aways been smooth -

The only way to be 100% sure is to hook up an mechanical oil gauge to the motor, to get an idea of what the 'actual' oil pressure is.

I don't think you are being anal. Oil pressure that bounces between 0 - 1 BAR at idle & then goes full scale at road speed is not the gauge, it's the
oil pump or main bearings!
