If it's running below the half way point on the temp meter then it's running fine.

Many turbodiesels have either an oil cooler or an ATF cooler or both.

It's like a small radiator for your oil... a heat exchanger which uses air to cool the oil down.

Mahirap yan 'coz it might affect the performance of the car. There's an ECU that monitors/controls the operating parameters of the car at syempre it's been set at a certain value. Baka pag bumaba o tumaas kesa sa set value, may ibang system ang maapektuhan.
