Here's a question for the good folk of rr.pub
Does anyone know if there is a thermostat in the oil system, specifically under the oil filter housing where the cooler pipes go.
Thx

There's no mention of one in my manual for a diesel or petrol.
No there isn't, not on the petrol anyway (just got home.....).
I didn't think so. Just needed confirming.
Just wondering as the pipes are not very hot.
Probably because it cold weather

What took you so long lol
Bloody trucks in convoy at 40mph on the A16.......
That drive to and from Boston seems to take forever when I've had to do it as well. Like it used to be to drive out on the A11 to Norwich when it used to go through the middle of Elveden.
Time slows down the nearer you get!
I am 100% certain there is no thermostat on the auto gearbox cooler and 99% certain there is no thermostat on the engine oil cooler, if that helps.
It's what I thought too.
Thank you
well today i found out for sure its working.
had a drive out for a while and pipes are hot.
big difference in temperatures on in and out :)
