Standard Running Temperatures

[TheDonVon]

Question for the gurus here on the forum. I have a 2013 Ram 1500 Crew Cab, Hemi, 6 Speed, 3.92 lsd, and it seems that lately the running temperatures seem to be a little high. What should the standard running temperatures be? I've never recorded them previously, but I think the oil temp used to run a bit cooler than it is now.

Appreciate the help!

I have essentially the same setup but with 3.55s. My temps going down the highway at that outside temp is very similar to those temps.

Those temps are definately good for your setup. I have a 2016 with the 8HP70 so my trans temps are more like 190....

I also have a 2013 4x4, 1500 CC, Hemi, 6spd, with 3.92 gears. Those temps are pretty much identical to mine. But the highest my oil temp has ever been was around 215

Most modern engines operate at 212f, the hotter you get away from that you loose performance, the cooler you get you can "possibly" end up with water issues. Those temps look perfect for any vehicle, perfect! Start showing serious concern at 240f, but newer coolants even have higher boiling temps then older coolants, so in reality you could probably go 260F and up a little before you have to park it.

Appreciate the input everyone. Thanks for putting my mind at ease.
