I think people overestimate the effect of ambient temperature on engine operating temperature. There's a cooling system in place to regulate that over a wide temperature and load range. Even in "cool" climates, summer temperatures are going to hit 25C. A mere 10C higher than that is not going to matter. If conditions reach the point where the engine temperature is such that the oil can't lubricate anymore, you've got lots of other problems.
