2012 Defender 90 Puma 2.2 CSW Santorini Black

Read temperatures, driving conditions are extra urban, dont have motorways locally.
Engine temperature 87-88dC. Oil temperature fluctuated 94-99dC. Now worried cause my DPF soot load is showing 85%

been a while since I checked that. 1988 90 Hard Top, 19J Diesel Turbo, Shire Blue - Restoration ongoing
2012 90 CSW, 2.2TDCI, Santorini Black

Hi folks, just wanted to give and update. Firstly though, thanks again for all the input and support on this one.

I changed the Oil Cooler... it was definitely blocked. I could blow through the new cooler much easier than the old one.

Finally got onto the freeway today and pushed the vehicle. Max oil temp was 110 briefly whereas previously I could easily get it to go over 120C... so hopefully all fixed. Water temp unchanged at 88C.

Don't want to think about why the cooler was blocked... probably someone chucked some leak sealant into the radiator the past...

Thanks again.
