Oil Temp Survey

Nick911sc · 03-26-2010, 10:38 AM

I agree with Semtex. I read that article awhile back and it really got me thinking about the oil temperatures in my car. To be honest I never see my oil temperature go above 220-230(but I haven't driven it hard in hotter weather yet). But, if I see temperatures substantially higher, but still not in limp mode. I may consider an oil cooler without being on the track just for the sake of ease of mind.

The biggest thing that makes no sense to me is. I'd say a VAST majority of members on this forum mod their cars. So why complain about an oil temperature problem with this car if an oil cooler is one of the cheapest mods that can be done to the car? Stop complaining and fix the problem. I'm sure the 350z had this same problem. But without an oil temperature gauge or limp mode ignorance is bliss.
