I have a 2019 Impreza. I'm in Canada and the weather had been about 33C. I noticed the engine oil at 110C although the radiator was showing normal temps. Normally I see the oil temp at about 95-99C.

Is it normal for engine oil temps be over 100C?

It's normal to have oil temps like that, especially when it's summertime or pushed a little.

In fact, the oil has to be above 100C, or 212F, for the impurities in it, like water and fuel, to burn off. You're fine.
