Message	I just wanted to comment that on days under 75 degrees (especially colder days), I'll see pressure up to 100psi...maybe 120psi. I try not to get that high and I let the oil come up to temperature. Part of the issue is that the I believe the check-valve for the oil cooler is like 50psi, so it is constantly being cooled even though it probably needs to get warmer on a cool day. However, after 10-15 minutes of gentle driving the temperatures should thin it out. On 90F+ days it should be much faster.
Follow Ups	what type of oil - ZTom 11:29:51 02/12/15 5w20 is way too thin for a TT. 10w40 at a minimum. - itsa300zx 11:38:44 02/12/15 best to do some oil analysis with different weights. (n/m) - itsa300zx 11:40:38 02/12/15 0W40 (n/m) - njz 09:51:30 02/14/15 Type or weight? R.P. is good, 5w20 is not. - FrozTTy 11:59:01 02/12/15 Re: Type or weight?

(n/m) - evan_aggie 14:48:09 02/13/15 probably the same PSI rating, or within the ballpark - Mizzuh 20:30:48 02/13/15 I was going to switch back to Amsoil 0w30. (n/m) - ShakaShaun(Denver) 08:33:49 02/14/15 I am using Redline 15w-50 currently. - Metacom 11:27:57 02/14/15 Depends on several different variables.... - Hiram 01:41:13 02/17/15
