Default Pressure coeff doesn't converge (laminar flow)

Laurensvs is on a distinguished road
I'm trying to simulate a laminar flow around an object in order to calculate the pressure coefficient.
However, when I'm trying to refine the mesh in order to see to what value the pressure coefficient converges, the value doesn't always rise, but also drops.
In other words, the value doesn't converge, but I can't seem to find the reason for this.

(incompressible flow, Reynolds number 10)
