Re: Unusually High OIL temp

["Wing Gee" <winggee@hotmail.com>]

your say it's that little baffle that's hooked up to the oil pump? well.. it
has one. and i don't see how that would cause the oil to over heat even
under idle. it takes about 20 mins for the oil to get up to 120 degrees
while idling. plus my g60 looks exactly the same, and i have never gone up
to 120 degrees before even with the turbo. i dunno.. this sucks..
