D:02:01 in the service manual has the specifications.
Checking value: 4.9-5.5 bar
Setting value: 5.1-5.3 bar
4.5 bar (450kPa) would be a bit low.

From mechanic:
The control pressure out of the warm up regulator is showing that pressure, which the spec should be 49-53 PSI. We should have been seeing 345-375 kPA at the temperatures we were working at.

That's where we started. I mentioned on page 7 they pulled and examined the CPR (warm up regulator) and said it looks like new. They pulled the return hose but control pressure is still too high.
I've asked them to order shims for the primary pressure regulator. Not sure what else it could be.

If it's not the CPR or the return hose, what else could it be? Could CPR need to be rebuilt even if not clogged?

The CPR can lose calibration, the screen can get plugged up and the wiring for the internal heater burns up. To understand the CPR better read D:01:11, :12. To test it get the fuel pressure gauge on the system and refer to the chart and specs on D:02:01. Before testing the CPR verify the vacuum hoses are hooked up correctly and not leaking.
