Re: oil temp gauge
 

Oil temp on my A4 reads around 100.

It used to read around 60 but that was when the thermostat in the cooling
system wasn't working & so the water temp never got much above 60-70 either.

What's your water temp gauge say??

What was the outside temp? My A6 2.5 TDIs (150 HP) oil never gets warmer
at our current below freezing temperatures.

So I'd say, yes, that's ok.
