what is normal oil temp?

[Rabbit16v@attbi.com (Rabbit16v)]

The best temp for your oil should be around 90 to 110 celsius (unless your
driving it hard then a little higher).  90 should be seen on the freeway or
highways and 110 should be in town or in traffic.  100 celsius is an
important temp and if you car never gets there it should once in a while
since this is the boiling point of water and will help disipate condensation
inside the motor.  HTH!
