I think that we've generally consensed on below 400 degrees as a good target before shutting down the diesel. I've found that waiting isn't always easy. For example, today, after driving in traffic, I stopped to grab a take-out sandwich for lunch. When I parked, my turbo temperature was at about 550 so I left the Jeep idling, door locked, while I went in. It took a little longer than I thought (7-8 minutes) and when I returned the turbo temperature was at 397. That's a LONG time to wait. The ambient today is 95 degrees. If left to it's own devices, my turbo will drop all the way to 280 degrees even while idling, but after quite a while.
Am I the only one who is too impatient for 400 degrees? Is 400 degrees too aggressive a target?
