Guest Posted May 6, 2008 dont get overly worried by oil temp, all corrados run hot (and vw`s in general i have found) my oil temp was 110 in the g60 today :grin: only way to drop that significantly is by using a seperate uprated 13 row or simmilar oil coooler mounted at the side of your rad instead of the oil/water bath type as standard bad running will be so hard to diagnose without the car in front of someone, even if they are a mechanic! it can be a multitude of things, best way is to get diagnostic check and take it to a garage you trust to work on your car Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
