Unhappy Odd Oil Cooler Prpblem

Hey guys,

Just had my Stillen 25R Oil Cooler installed last night. Late to the party, but anyhow, the problem is not the oil cooler itself, it's after installed. Right now the oil reads either exactly or below 180F - perfect for me, while the water temps read 2 dots from the center towards C - which yet again is perfect.

The issue is, today in SD around 11AM, my weather temp sensor - not sure what it is called by I've searched everywhere in our forum - it reported 60F outside which is normal. What isn't normal is after 25 minutes of driving around 65-75mph, the weather temp reports from 121F to 130F!!!

I attached a couple of photos, the first one is in the morning and the 2nd photo is when I parked at work 25 mins later. Some say the weather sensor needs to be relocated, but can someone shed some light? I know I have to go back to Stillen, but they're half day on a Saturday and closed on Sundays. It bugs me that I couldn't find any answers.

Anyone with oil coolers experienced this?

Thanks.
