2016 MP7 CXU 613
Even when it’s actually 65 degrees out while parked and at idle my outside air temp will suddenly rise to 135 degrees and my water temp will climb to 195 degrees and my A/C will not cool as well. I can rev up to 1200 rpm for several minutes and it will drop back to close to the outside air temp and A/C will be cold. When pulling a load on a hot 100 degree day my max water temp that I have ever seen is 208 and oil temp 245. What have I got going on?

Thank you! I was hoping for that but the oil temperature gauge doesn’t have any markings like a red line and I didn’t know if the Guard Dog monitored it or not.

Seeing coolant temperature of 180-185 with a oil temperature of 235-245 while outside temperature is 60 while pulling or stopped. Is this normal? In summer temps of 100 I only saw a max coolant temp of 205 and oil temp of 250 so this seems odd to me

Thanks for the reply. I was thinking I might be having problems with the fan clutch not engaging at a lower temp. Is the clutch controlled by a sensor or computer? Or possibly a faulty thermostat?
