2012 Model Will Have OIl Cooler

So would I have any issues with an aftermarket oil cooler and driving in the snow/very cold temps?

It's not ideal to run around with 140F oil, but what are you going to do when it is 20F out. I used blue painters tape to tape up the oil cooler last year because i got too lazy to do anything on my 2 miles commute....

Not sure. I don't have an oil cooler yet, but was planning on getting one eventually. Problem is, I DD my Z including in the winter even if it snows.
