Oil temps in normal

Not in sport or sport+ (where it runs cooler) - highway @ 60-70 MPH?

I consistently see 230- 235 degrees F. Outside temperature 50F.

Others?

Thanks!

Consistently 204-210F regardless of speed or outside temp( New England); post oil change in February, 194F with temps 3-37F- interested to see if any change in spring- car is garaged in winter x for the rare sunny, dry day.

My temps hover in the 200 -210 range regardless of how hot it is. In the winter, goes down to about 195 for a while, till engine warms up, then goes up to about 200 and pretty much stays there.

Does it take forever, just to warm up to 150?
I'm already where I am going, before I can use any RPM.

It depends on the ambient temperature. When it's real cold - say 15 f - my engine takes over 12 miles to heat up.

It's interesting that we actually know the oil temperature. This is the first car I've owned with an oil temperature gauge.
