neeeh, i don't wanna do a research on it. i wanna ask my own questions and get my own answers. but thanx for the advice. i honestly appreciate it.
I thought the 2012s came with an oil cooler.

Limp mode= which means that the engine won't rev beyond a pre-programmed speed, you can't accelerate very fast, or you may indeed be speed-restricted to 40 mph or similar.

BTW, you say that this is your first MT, that might be one of the reason of oil overheating. Driving in low gears will be a factor.
