I do have my fans set to max cooling using BM3. I will look at the lower range thermostat too but I’m this instance it doesn’t look like that would’ve done anything for me.
If you can find a bigger radiator for the coolant, it might help both problems without as much work.

Unknown to me how much work the front radiator replacement might be. As crowded as the nose is, I suspect A LOT. The oil cooler looks a lot easier. If $700+ and DIY is in your wheelhouse, it might make some movement in the right direction.
