We have a decent size drive comming up this week.. is 13.2 low? Ive tried to read ive found 13.0 to 14.5 is norm. Battery is new. I cant find my muliti meter... damn kid has it im guessing.
Thank you.
We just did an oil cooler. We usually run amsoil. Opted for mobile one 5w20. This
Time..... Pressure seems low. I know it used to be 50psi at speed. im seeing 46psi max at 70mph now. See photos. One of idle one of driving. Last think i need is to lose an engine. Any insite/reassuance...
Confirmed oil cooler... howeever my extended warranty didnt covet it. Go figure. any tips for doing the job myself. We have a full service shot at our disposal. But figured if the warranty covered it we would let them do it. But now I gotta do it.
I did. Everything seems ok. Except for what i saw in the coolant. However I turned the heater off an the truck came up to temp. Oil came to temp turned heater back on 4 an let it run for the past 30 min and everything is staying up to temp. Om beyond lost. At this point. Om calling it a win...
2020. With the heat off it seems to run at normal temps. Fan kicks ok. Drops the temps to 205 206. Oils sitting at 212 with heater off. Normal.. But as soon as I turn the heat back on it drops back down below 190 and oil to like 170 181

Well I just thought to myself what does the coolant look like. Welllllll that's cold how fked am I. It's not over heating. It's running fine
Honestly I just popped the rad cap. This is what I found. It's cold. Hasn't run for 2 hours

Appreciate all you guys help. It's literally been sitting here for 35 mins. At idle at these temps. Hot heat. Hasn't moved. So I'm thinking t stat is open stuck. It's always cycled. 222 down to 206ish Coolant. Oil has always been at 212ish. Pressure 32 at idle.
This is the first day it's done this. Last month it did not do this. Same temps outside 20s & 30s.... infact. Just 2 weeks ago I was seening normal operating temps 203ish. 206. Oil 212. 222. I don't wanna go back to the dealer for something as simple as a thermostat. However I have had...
Just drove it 40 mins home from a cold start. It got to 190. Then fell to 170. Then cycled up to 186 to 175 the rest of the trip. Sitting in the drive way right now at 185. Heat is ok. I did notice when it was warming up it would fall back 3 or so degrees every so often also.
I'd believe that. My other concern is my oil temps not getting above 200... which I'm guessing is making my oil psi high. I usually saw 33 at idle. Seeing 39 41 today. What coolant do we have to run in the 5th gens. I know it's not green
I've seen 201 at most today 176 was the lowest when i took the photo. yes normally it'll hit the 220 or 224 an the fan will kick. And it's normally 199 206ish. Idk. Kinda worried got a long trip coming up
