Hi guys,
my 2L is getting hotter than normal and I'm thinking about mounting a extra oilcooler.
Anyone here who did this before?

first check that your thermostat is ok (boiling water test ) and that your radiator is in good condition. also putting fully synthetic 10w 40 motorcyle engine oil will help (made by castrol) and others
cheers
