Hi all

Welcome and congrats. In '12 Nissan added a coolant line from the radiator to help cool the oil and in '13 they added a pressurized radiator overflow tank to increasing the capacity of the cooling system. Break yours in according to the manual and then see where your oil temps are. I have a '13 and my normal oil temp is 200 on an 80 degree PNW summer day. My temps run 220 with spirited driving. If I lived in a hotter climate or tracked the car then I would probably have a cooler. Agree on the oil. Change to a good quality synthetic with better heat properties.
