![Question](https://rennlist.com/forums/images/icons/icon5.gif)
Been curious for a while.
I understand in the 996 Mark 1 cars you can read oil temp in some manner.
Also in the 997 oil temp can be read.
Is there a way of seeing the oil temp in the Mark 2 996? and if not is there a after market gauge of some sort?
Cheers,
Geoff

Hey Geoff!
If I remember right, you have to fiddle with the heater controls..like pushing a couple of buttons at the same time for a few seconds.
Have you searched??

Which if done right can be kind of cool.

In the 997 the voltage gauge is replaced by the oil temp gauge.
In my 996 the oil seems to take longer to warm up, as indicated by a drop in the idle oil pressure. If the oil pressure is a guide, then suspect oil temp is not as "fixed" as the coolant, and effected by ambient temp etc
