From what I read engine oil temps have a much higher danger zone compared to the transmission temps.

What are high cylinder head temps? How much water wetter? I keep reading that 230 oil temps are really normal. That’s what keeps me away from the oil cooler.

So far for base models all I have found is oil coolers which I’m not really interested in. If Ford released these cars like this then I guess all is well.

Does having the pp give you the option for those extra add ons?

I’m running amsoil sig series in the motor part of me wants to go amsoil for the trans too. Even though I’m only at 5k miles.

Those are solid numbers.

Any dangers with this?

That’s the temp I was thinking if my memory serves correct it got to 228-230 the other day but it didn’t stay long. I guess this is the curse of having a base model.

So what is the cut off point when I should let things cool down? Really wish ford outlined these things online lol.

I know the engine oil temp runs high. But the A10 trans temp runs high too? I have tried to find a range on google but can’t locate anything

After stop and go traffic and small pulls in the city almost exclusively using the paddle shifters. Pulled into the driveway with 226 on the dash for the a10. Was actually 228 before I snapped the pic. Does ford have any guidelines on how hot the A10 actually gets? I’m aware the engine oil temp...

10/4 it’s good to get different perspectives from other mustang owners.

Not sure if you are aware but it’s sound advice to not cold start and just let the car sit. Driving the car gently is 1 million times better for warming up and getting things going. A simple start wait for the initial idle to drop is sufficient. Long drawn out idles don’t assist the car at all

Wouldn’t work for me highway is 3 minutes from my home and I drive daily for work currently. Thank you though. I believe this is a topic that is subjective. There are probably many right answers.

I’m sure there are certain ranges floating somewhere I just haven’t found them

Thankfully for us these cars are quick it doesn’t take much throttle to get it up to speed.

My drive for work is almost immediately highway so I have gotten in the habit of staying under 4k until I see 190 oil temp 170 trans temp with my A10. I think it’s a good philosophy to follow. Just wish there was something put out from Ford to support this.

Thank you. I was referring to warming up stages. What’s the max one should be doing until the car has fully warmed up. For instance me going to about 4k rpms then shifting while the trans temp was at 131.

This photo was taken awhile back my car has over 3k miles now I’m just using it for context. I have scoured what I believe to be everywhere for info on what ranges are okay to get into while the car is warming up. I don’t really get on my car until the oil temp is 190 and trans temp is 170 which...

Body shop offered to do it for free mix the paint and then give me the rest for free. So it’s a good trade. I’m sure they will be able to do it and make sure it will have staying power.
