Oil coolers

[J_T]

Does anyone sell uprated oil coolers specifically for the FD with the correct mounting brackets, etc.?

I\'m seeing some oil temps in the high 90sC in traffic even in the evening when it\'s not hot and sunny.  Water stays fairly constant about 80-85 under the same conditions.  This is with stock rad/oil coolers/intercooler.

BTW does anyone else see a direct correlation between turning the A/C on and increased oil temps?

Thanks,
Jon

Does your FD have twin oil coolers!?
I\'ve bought a set of two, since mine only has one, and seen 115!!:(
 
And heard with twin oil coolers the most you get is 95 when driving hard!

Yeah, got twins.

I\'ve also got a weird idle issue that when the engine is hot it turns on what can only be described as that fast warmup thing where idle is around 3000rpm.  This is a complete PITA as you don\'t want a hot engine getting even hotter!  Seen oil temps as high as 105 with this.

Gonna get the idle issue looked at but the temps in traffic are without this so a separate issue.
