No, I switched to manual mode right before I got on the interstate ramp, then I get went ahead and accelerated adn switched all the way up to 5th gear cruising around 65, from the time I got on the ramp to when I reached 65 my oil temps went from 215-220 to 235-240. My guess is high revs? I did do like 6 grand changes idk, I think thats the only thing that could explain it. Cuz the other day I was on the highway and was in 5th and accidently put it into 4th and it revved 7-8 and my oil temps shot up immediatelty. I think thats proabably what it was, because after a while of crusiing in 5th on the highway it cooled down again.

so idk. I think my assumption about the revs are right though.
