Default Oil Temp
Searched the threads and found everything but....
What is the normal oil temperature range for this car? I'm running about 214 on the DIC in normal driving around town. Too hot or normal?

214 is well within normal operating temperature and the mobil one doesn't start breaking down until something like 400 degrees
