I don't think so. To look at a pressure gauge to know if you're seeing "extra wear" then you'd have to know what is normal pressure with normal bearings. Normal pressure will depend on oil temperature, RPM, oil viscosity (which itself depends on how long it's been in the engine), and whether or not the oil thermostat is open or closed. Then on top of that you've got a variable displacement pump that might compensate for some of those factors. I don't think this is a solvable problem to use oil pressure on the S65 to infer bearing wear.
