Whats your temp ?
#6
my 08 5spd ss runs about 195 to 201 most of tme. I've had my wifes 08ss in the shop twice for what I feel is overheating it is an auto. it runs 198 to 205 most of time. going uphill it gets to 221. dealer ran diagnostic. says ok, but to me 221 uphill is hot, it does cool down to 205 quickly when gets more level

the 5 spd is in 4th or 5th at 70 mph clims from 2000 to 5000 in 3 miles. it gets about 205-207. the auto is in dr or 4th gear same road with outside temp both times about 75 to 80 speed about 65-70, no pushing or floorboarding, just easy climb, it gets 219-221, but does cool to about 205 when more level. going downhill on this road auto runs about 5 degrees COOLER. dealer says all is cool.
