Pls. elaborate on "smoking"..
Where? at the oil cooler behind fog lites??
What would cause it to steam up ?? HIgh humidity & cold ambient temp?
What was engine oil temp on the gauges?

I checked onto it '08 &'09's 3.5i w/ sport pkg have the xtra oil cooler behind drivers' side fog lites. 5.0i's all have the cooler as well.
Not sure whether 2010's 3.5i without the sport pkg. would come with it now.
Can someone w/ 2010 3.5i with or without sport pkg. confirm?
(I'll have to check w/ dealer later.)
