Oil temp changes on a GT4 according to whether you are in sport (higher) or not, it’s by design with oil cooler optimisation.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

11 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I have noticed the oil temp running around 105 on my 991.2 GTS when driving normally. Seems to run sub 100 most of the time but this has happened twice in the past month. Any thoughts?

Any thoughts? Oil temp changes on a GT4 according to whether you are in sport (higher) or not, it’s by design with oil cooler optimisation. It mentioned in the instructions. Could your car be the same.

POST 3Original post

Not a GTS but a 991.2 Carrera. 105 would be normal to low for me.

POST 4Original post

I’ve the same car , city temps 105-108 ish otherwise 95-100 . I also think it strange that slow driving is usually a higher temp than fast but always been like that. On track I’ve seen 110+ .I don’t think it’s anything to worry about.

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks everyone, that is very helpful.

POST 6Original post

My 991.2 T stays pretty steady at 100. In my 981 GTS the oil temperature dropped a bit when in Sport owing to increased oil cooler airflow. Fuel consumption went up a bit too. :-)

gdogg2006 said: I have noticed the oil temp running around 105 on my 991.2 GTS when driving normally. Seems to run sub 100 most of the time but this has happened twice in the past month. Any thoughts? Same on my 991.1. It's the first car (that I can remember) that I've owned with an oil temperature gauge - it's very useful as it happens. Particularly when starting and driving from cold - the oil takes quite a long while to heat up. Hardly a shocker, but it's useful to see. Most of the time my oil is at 90 degrees and then 105 (ish) when pushing.

POST 9Original post

GT4 here, oil temps between 100-110 when pressing on (and that's right in the middle of the gauge)

POST 10Original post

The oil will run at lower temperatures in 'Sport' mode - worth knowing if you're seeing high temperatures (hot foreign motorways, altitude etc).

POST 11Original post

997.1 here Oil Temp generally 95-105c, however I am using a slightly high visc oil 10W-50 (Millers nanodrive cfs NT+) Previously 90-95 when on Mobil1 5W-40
