Fans not coming on???
I know C5s run a little hotter than most cars, but today driving at night, temps in the 70s, my car was at anywhere between 210-230. As I got closer to chicago, and encountered more stoplights and stuff, by the time I pulled into my garage the temps hit 260. I left the car running and popped the hood real quick. I could hear the coolant boiling in the tank as it was coming out of the surge tank, but I noticed that the fans weren't even spinning. WTF is going on??? It seems like they come on very sporadically.
