Oil Temp

Stop-go traffic at 20-55mph for about 15 minutes will get my car to 215*F. Then I get on the freeway at 80 and it cools down to about 195-200*F.

75* Ambient.

You guys are making me wonder if mine may have an oil cooler hidden in it somewhere. I need to crawl under there and look.

I bought the car from Nissan lat month, but it was a 2009. Never been titled but Nissan corporate had used it for something. Corporate is local to me. I assume for execs to drive when in town but who knows. Had 2900 miles on it when I drove it off the lot.
