What's your oil pressure when you engine is hot? No such thing as a stupid question around here!

My HOT IDLE oil pressure is between 1.4-1.8 BAR depending on how hot oil/outside is
& my oil pressure is 2.8-3.5 through the RPM range BAR also depending on how hot oil/outside is. That youtube video dosent do the ticking justice its loud, I can hear it inside the car with my windows down Heres a picture of my dipstick please let me know if this is alarming

Well I'm not a V6 expert by any means but that oil pressure seems really low to me. I'm assuming that the V6 oils the top of the engine first like a LS engine and if it does then I wouldn't think that is the issue but it couldn't help your lifter problem either. Definitely sounds like a lifter and probably better to get it fixed immediately before it breaks because that kind of break van ruin your entire engine. And if you do have the lifter fixed I would also have the oil pump replaced with a high volume pump. Hopefully someone else will post what they think as well like a V6 owner.

Another thing is that video you posted looks like V8 not a V6 like in your signature.
