I had a look at the manual over lunch.
18-005 suggests that where there is insufficient oil pressure, one
should "check whether oil pressure relief valve has dropped from oil
pump or has become loose. In both cases, coat threads on oil pressure
relief valve with sealing compound, part no 002 989 94 74 and screw in."
18-215 notes that there are different pressure relief valves and
suggests that one can use version C as a remedy if there is a pressure
drop at idle below 2 bar with cold oil or below 1 bar with warm oil. It
may have come with type B which has a shark mouth diagonal slot whereas
type C has an oval hole . Type C is 5 bar gauge pressure while type B is
8 bar.
Type B is part # 616 180 00 15 and type C is 115 180 02 15.
