oil temp gauge

engine is hot i was in my a6 2.5 tdi v6 motorway driving for 3 hours and it hardly moved above 60 there as just been new sensor fitted so i reckon this is correct and running ok thanxs to any replies cheers stef |
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?? I.

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. Regards W. |
