Average temp?

Just curious to see what temp all of you spirited drivers average? With or without an intercooler

Sounds that you are looking at oil temps
CRJdriver is talking about intake air temps

Intercooler will not lower oil temps, it lowers intake air temp

I only drive 30-45 minutes at a time and it only stays at about 180 F.

Should also mention it takes 20 minutes of normal driving to heat the engine up to 160 F from a cold start.

The highest I have been is at the halfway mark on a very hot summer day after several hours of fast highway driving.

In general, I notice that the oil temp is higher on the highway than around town, despite more airflow. Must be an efficiency program thingy.

I've had oil temp at almost at 250 on the freeway at night when it was below 30.
But as soon as you do a pull or run it hard thermostat kick in and it cools down to around 190.

Don't know why bmw does this.

My oil temps peak around 239-241, my intake temps are usually between 5-14 degrees above ambient at highway speed with the ATM fmic.

Put an OBDII with Torque Pro to find engine coolant temp, intake temp, etc.
The dial of the cluster is only oil temp.
