You can replace all those parts, but if your radiators are blocked with debris, the heat can't be removed from the coolant.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

8 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

So this is my running temp stuck in heavy traffic with 88 degree weather. It appears to be roughly 205 degrees. Doing a google search and it seems this is a normal temp in those conditions but wanted other input. There is no air in the system. It was vacuumed flushed and vacuumed again for conformation. New water pump installed just 2 months back. Thoughts?

POST 3Original post

Completely normal under the circumstances. Your radiator fans should be running on high. Are yours?

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Quotes source post: 20024525

Yes, once they come on it cools down .

here ya go, this just popped on reddit a few days ago. https://www.reddit.com/r/996/comment...t=share_button

POST 7Original post

You can replace all those parts, but if your radiators are blocked with debris, the heat can't be removed from the coolant. Very easy job to do, directions all over the internet if you are a DIY'er. Did mine last month and glad I did. Mine is rock steady at 180. Havn't had any real high ambient temps yet, but feel like it will be fine. Yours seems high. Also, known fact that gauges are very "liberal" in their information.

POST 8 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Yeah I cleaned mine as well so they are free of any restriction
