Don't know so much about "bars".  (Try to stay out of them as a general rule.)  Anything below 10-12 psi at idle requires action, and soon.  (I think that's .75 bar.)

As I recall, 3.0 bar is normal and expected when running at speed. I get 2.2 - 2.4 bar at idle which is also "normal" - not sure what is bad oil pressure at idle. Anyone know how low oil pressure can get at idle to indicate future problems?
