Hello all. I'm not used to seeing my oil pressure gauge fluctuate while driving, but I also have never driven a hybrid before. Best I can tell, when I'm slowing down, things switch over to the hybrid engine, and the oil pressure gauge bottoms out to nothing. A soon as I give it gas, the oil pressure gauge jumps back up to half or a bit more depending on how much gas I give it. It seems anytime it switches over to hybrid, that's when the oil pressure bottoms out to nothing. Is this expected behavior for a hybrid engine?

Makes sense when the gas engine shuts off there would be no oil pressure
