at the moment no courtesy of needing new wheel bearings at 149k miles. Its the slow/stuck in traffic bit after going flat out that gets it, oil temps have a tendency of going north of 105 C. To which I imagine will happen on the approach to Festival of Speed this year.

Flat Out - No, the engine stays stable on Engine tenps even on a 200mph run. However with an engine undertray which was missing a few scoops, the gearbox would get hot (longer changes = hot) until I replaced the undertray with a new one with all the scoops.

In traffic - Maybe, I see 103'c at the highest with 10w-40 Titan Pro-S and fresh coolant but also with no fans on the IC's to drop the intake temps, which is why I think my temps are a bit higher than I'd expect.

Ok cool, it’s just I went out on Saturday and I couldn’t use all power, didn’t know weather the heat has something to do with it, code says throttle body and oil sensor,

Could you post the codes you got, it'll help people make more accurate guesses about your issue?
