Question Oil Pressure Gauge Problem??

Im hoping this is just a problem with the gauge/sender unit for my pressure gauge. On Starting the car the needle fluctuates between 0 and 40 psi until warm then rises to about 80 when up to temp. Car still runs fine and feels no different to usual, the dashboard oil symbol does not light up when the needle falls to 0. Im assuming that the gauge is faulty as it should read max when starting??

Gauge was fitted by reputable garge who advertise on here. Car is MY99
