Well, just did the first oil change myself in between scheduled maintnance, I got the vaccum pumped out all the oil and replaced it with Mobil 1 5W50 supersyn, the coolant temp was lowered.
The coolant temp needle usually sit slightly below the 100 degree celcius mark, but now, even in the morning traffic, it's at 80 mark.
maybe my thermostat got stuck open after oil change? just kidding...
what's your take?
