For those of you who have installed a traditional oil temperature sensor in your sump or a sandwich plate, have you compared that with the temps provided by the AP?

If this has been addressed in another thread or another forum, please link it here.

Thanks

I have not seen this addressed, and I think it's a good question. I would also be interested to know how accurate the oil temperatures provided by an AP are.

Welcome to the Forum.
Thanks. I’ve seen threads discussing it but was not able to find one reporting back with findings.

The sending unit in the pan would give you hot temps, years ago I ran a temp sensor on my coyote after the cooler by accident and the gauge gave me cold temps not actual hot temps. Even if your gauge is a few degrees off what does that matter? As long as water temp and oil temp move together you're ok.
