do you have a picture of where you took the plug out? otherwise IMO youd get better read out of the pan

Its one of the presure ports and you can read there, The temps may appear a bit higher than the real average since you are measuring right off the pump and i a small channel of the case, It wont be a good average temperature like you would get in the pan but still will give you and idea,

10 to 20 would be my guess would depend the type driving your doing at the time, On the lower side just normal driving but the spikes would tend to be more when driving agressivley.
