What are normal oil temperatures for the 5.0?
More an issue of simulated display. If the ‘gauge’ aint accurate who’s to say it really works.Oil does not even start burning off water vapor or deposits until 230 or so (needed from time to time). Synthetic oil does not start to break down until much higher. I'm not sure why everyone is worried about the oil temps on these cars, they seem to be running right where they should be.
I was using forscan and passed a setting that can be changed for weather or not it has an oil cooler, you may need to have that changed.Just seeing this thread. Recently install the OEM oil cooler on my non-PP S650. Oil temps have not dropped as I would have expected them. I am going to install the PP radiator as it is 17mm thicker and should have better cooling capacity which would impact the inferred oil temps. The picture is from earlier today. Hoping to install the rear diff temp sensor and harness later next week.
