We'll see, but I don't believe so.  Thanks for being open to the possibility, though.

I have a fear that the seals on my engine are blown.  I lose a lot of oil.  The gauge reads 80 PSI, until the engine warms up, at which point the gauge drops to about 60 PSI.

I would check the hot oil pressure at idle, with a mechanical gauge.  Then you can determine if your electric sending unit and gauge are accurate.

Initially, I was told that the high oil pressure was normal.  It has the TFS oil pump in it.

Still, it's good to know what the real pressures are and if your electric system is working correctly.

True.  I'm working on that.

Don't you have one of the later transmissions?  Wonder if it's as easy to replace?

I am having the oddest issue, where there is an i termittent sound.  This sound sounds like the bathroom faucet is turned on and water is pouring out, then the faucet is turned off, just like a faucet.  The engine sound does not change, and I'm unable to find any other effects.  The sound often starts after I hit a bump.  Sometimes, letting off the accelerator causes the sound to stop, or at least the sound stops at that time.  Not always, though.

Um, yeah, but not lately.

On the other hand, some people apparently either don't notice or don't care about these things

Sounds like heater core noise. Air gets trapped in them. Sometimes, when it works it’s way out, it makes other, more concerning noises as it burps out of the front reservoir.

Could be, but the sound seems to come from the driver's side.

How are your brakes?  Do you have a high idle?  Maybe it's a vacuum sound around the brake booster?  Otherwise, there's nothing on the driver's side that could make any sounds, other than the headlight motor and that shuts down via the module, or the water rail where it comes up to the top of the radiator.
