Boost creep? low oil temp? help!

Jonathan3009 · 11-27-2011, 04:19 PM

Hi, all

well today i was testing my car.. and i found 2 problems:

boost peaks: i took my car for a short ride 1st to test boost pattern... and i found it... sometimes I'm getting peaks of 0,9 bar!!!! at wot.. i tried to make a video to show you... so as far as i know my maximum boost should be 0,7 bar and my boost pattern 0,55 / 0,7 bar... but im having a real weird boost pattern

oil temp too low: after a short spirit ride to check boost pattern my oil temp was 29º celsius (84 ºF) water was 63 ºC (145 ºF) on highway just after pushing when I've arrived to home after parking and ready to shut down car temps were oil 35º celsius (95 ºF) water 84 ºC (183 ºF)

I was thinking that maybe there is a problem with oil temp sensor.. so i took the oil dipstick... to check if oil was cool or heat... and surprisingly... oil was touchable.. just a bit warm...

I've made a short video to show you the boost pattern, please help me!

And where are you located (temperature wise) at?

That is kinda odd that your oil would be that cool to the touch if you'd been out driving for a while.
