2.0 TSI oil temperature

[MGV]

Yes oil is right on the high mark & have been told they use the correct Castrol approved oil.
Think I'm going to drain the only 1500km old oil & fill it with penrite. I can always use the oil again I suppose, if I can rule out the oil isn't the problem!
Thanks for replies, Alex, Chris & Black!

I have a Jetta with the 2.0 TSI engine and mine gets up to 121deg on the highway. After about 30kms it's reading 117-118. Around town it's 105deg. Have just done an oil change with 504 rated oil and still the same. Car has complete VW service history.

I've seen certain reports saying its within tolerance... Keen for input on this.

Car drives beautifully.
