C6 Coolant Temp
At what temp should the fans kick in? Is it normal to see 240 degrees on the DIC display for Coolant Temp?

it starts to kick in %. around ect 195* fan is about 20%, at your temp / 240* fan should be on 100% already.

Have you replaced your coolant for any reason. You'll get temps like this if you don't get it refilled all the way because of an air pocket.
