I dont know if auto makes the car oil hotter, i highly doubt it, its prob my buddies lead foot, but my car rarely gets higher than one notch above 220... He sent me a text message of a picure of his oil at 260 lol

It was like 70 degrees out that day.. But his oil is always higher than mine.. we cruise together sometimes and no matter when we check it even if were following at similar speeds his is always at least 10 degrees higher..

His is auto mine is 6m ... dount it matters but his car def runs hotter almost always...

He is thinking about a cooler now , but imo I dont see a reason to get one unless you track it. Is 240-250 really that bad for your engine ?
