Hi friends,
I purchased from the company UltraGauge model EM Plus v1.4d (last version).
Although it is written in the user manual that there is an "oil temperature" value - The value of oil temperature does not appear in the values ​​of my UltraGauge. I have R56 N18. Is there anyone with an UltraGauge that can see oil temperature?
Thanks in advance

 

2013 R56 N18 and UltraGauge owner. There is no oil temperature reading as there is no oil temp sensor on the car. Any OBD reader that offers you an oil temp reading is an approximation based on other readings. If you want oil temp, you have to mod it In yourself.

 

Thanks. interesting. Because ScanGauge (a competing company) writes on the website that the ScanGauge scanner shows oil temperature at N18. So it's not really oil temperature?

If they advertise an oil temperature reading, it is not from an actual oil temp sensor, it is a number calculated from other readings from things like coolant and intake temp. I'm not even saying it isn't accurate- what I am saying is that it's based on a formula from other actual temperature readings because there is no sensor that reads the actual temperature of the oil.

 

To be honest, I don't worry about oil temp so much as Oil pressure and Coolant temp.

 

The UltraGauge scanner doesn't show "oil pressure" either... do we have an oil pressure sensor in the R56 N18?

 

Thx Josh
