Good day everyone,
Here I come again, this time oil temperature rising too high. Since outside temp started warming up I’m having high temp issues with my D16. When traveling on flat most times and any little pull my temperature will easily rise to 200-210 and it stays there, the fan off course kicks on and runs for a long time before going off when the temp drops. Not much deference even with A/C off. But when descending from a hill the temp will go down to 170 easy like nothing is happening. Reading my gauges when climbing a hill the oil temp raises all the way to 250 while the coolant temp reads 208, the pyrometer will go up to 1200ish. Radiator is about six months old with new water pump, thermostat and engine coolant temp sensor, all done same time radiator was replaced to include flushing the system and refilled with fresh coolant. I’ve read different threads with similar issues where some pointing to oil cooler and others say egr cooler. Any ideas where to start? I did a boost pressure test and fount out CAC is leaking near the upper right mounting bolt and another leak at the clamp on egr pipe to cooler. I’m going to fix that this weekend. Could that be why temp issue?
Other than that truck is running and pulling fine, didn’t even notice any change in power with the boost leak.
Oh I forgot to mention engine brake quit working, first stage the exhaust brake work but the second stage engine brake is not working. All this and there’s no error codes on dash, except turbo speed sensor electrical fault code which I’ve had for sometime but i think that’s something else I just having had time to trace yet.
Any info as to where to look or start will be highly appreciated. Sorry for the long write up but I wanted to put as much info on here to make it a little easy to connect the dots.
Nasriza please come to the rescue!

Syntetic oil should help drop the operating tempetature, better egr soot control, viscosity index, oxidation stability at high temperature.
I use Rottela T6 0/5w40 synthetic only, sold my last truck with 1,830,000 without inframe.
I just watched my oil temp after reading this thread few min ago. My oil temp fluctuates from 210 to 222 degrees , D13/2010, 1,178,000miles, original motor, driving I-30 Texas, 65mph, 95 degrees ouside, 25,000lbs in the box, aprox 60,000lbs total .
I read a pdf from volvo about oil capacity, shows 9.5 gallons, but I never used more than 9 gal, including 3 filters, even with 9 goes above the maximum level on oil dipstick .
Me thinking; why did they start using fibreglass for oil pan? I drove an older truck with aluminium pan, in northern Alberta (D60 if remember correct ) in oilfields, we used to warm up the oil during cold winter with torch direct flame on pan before start. Metallic oil pan has good heat transfer capability, would help cool down the oil rolling down the road; fiberglass is isolator keeps the heat inside, that's why is used in buildings isolation.
Am I right or tard?
