Anyone care to explain?????
As import pointed out, its likely the secondary electric fan that kicks on when the AC comes on. It cools the engine more, which in turn would affect the oil temperatures.

My '95 TA would shed about 20-30* on the coolant temp when those fans came on. Ran with the A/C on in traffic and it was about 190-210* vs. 220-230.
