Normal operating temps 2016 hemi

RamNoob · Aug 5, 2016

Hey ya'll.

I just got a 2016 ram 1500 with the hemi. What are the normal engine oil, trans and coolant twmps soppised to be?

I looked at the info center after my 15 mile drive home from work. This is what it said:

Coolant: 193
Engine oil: 215
Trans temp: 172
Oil psi 32.

It was 96 out here in south texas if that matters any. Thank you all in advance. Truck has 300 miles also

this has to be some kind of a metric conversion mistake. 153psi would burst some oil filters.
However, I'd agree 32psi is a little on the low side. Could be explained by thin oil, high ambient temps, low idle rpm, etc. What press at steady 1800 rpms on an expressway? Check out the oil threads on the forum, and pick a high quality oil and filter, and report any change.

I think he meant 53psi haha.

Coolant 190-200 F
Oil 210-221F
Tranny 170-179

Looks normal except for oil pressure. Mine runs at a constant 53 psi.

The oil psi, i noticed when driving later on in the evening. Roughly 82 outside. That the oil.psi was between 32-50 when driving.

looks ok. I don't see anything to worry about
As long as it increases with engine speed, that's normal.

Colder coolant is great but that sure seems low for a stock T-stat

32 psi is not low at idle. That's normal. Now if your at 52 psi at operating temperature at idle with everything stock including oil filter you may have the problem. While cruising you should be around 52 psi but not at idle.
