Will I see lower oil temps if I increase my oil capacity by 2qts with a new larger oil pan? Specifically when towing a travel trailer for long periods during the summer. IThe see high oil temps when climbing grades but if I take it easy the temps drop after I've climbed the grade and hit level ground or start assending the other side.
The pan in question is an AFE aluminum pan with exterior fins (smooth interior) and increases the total oil capacity to 12qts. The OEM pan is a smooth aluminum pan and the total oil capacity is 10.5qts.
The tow vehicle is a 2015 RAM 1500 3.0L EcoDiesel.
