What's a VR oil cooler? Do you mean VK motorwerks oil cooler?

Water temps were around 90 degrees C after the cool down lap which is normal. No clue. Unless water got so hot and then cooled down really fast or tranny temp was to hot.
Did you see the temp symbol, or did it just say: "engine malfunction, reduced power?"
