No. Our car cold starts at over 100 PSI and only drops once the oil has warmed up. Then again, I suppose it will work if you are OK with knowing not to drive aggressively until it reads lower than 100 PSI. I figure the big reason for this gauge is to make sure it does not drop too low, rather than too high.
