    Just got torque Pro and still learning. I did a search, but can't find oil temperature for my Tacoma. Got the transmission temperature working. Any help with the oil temp would be greatly appreciated.

    there is no oil temp sensor on the truck at all. just an oil pressure dummy switch. So theres no way to get temps or granulated pressure readings.

    Ah, thanks. I heard that the coolant temp and the oil temp usually run about the same, is that true?
