Your Thoughts, Your Opinion
I took the car out for the 2nd time after being stored for the winter. Before I stored it, I changed the oil and filter with mobile 1 extended and 1 QT of Lucus oil stableizer. I took it for a 20 mile ride with bursts of high revs & quick shifts at times (Taking it to 5500 RPM)
My Car is a 2012 SS 45th. 6 speed manual, It has 2055 miles on it. Bone stock. no mods, no tunes. the temp out side that day was 70. Here is what I recorded near the end of my drive: Speed: 39 MPH RPM:1500 Transmission Temp: 180 Oil Temp: 240 Coolent Temp:198 Oil pressure: 33 I have my thoughts and opinions. How about you? If this was your car, Would this all seem normal for the above info given? What do you think?? Thanks people |

That's a normal oil temp for these cars. You're fine.

Just out of curiosity, why the oil stabilizer?

My L99 45th auto oil temp runs right around 230-240 as well. I have roughly 3500 on her.
