Erratic idle / bad tune corrected
I had a less than respectable tune done on my '08 C6 about a month ago by a supposedly reputable tuner. The idle was erratic, fans ran constantly, etc. Makes me wonder how this particular L.I. "tuner" stays in business...
I brought the car up to Chuck CoW last night (Corvette's of Westchester for those of you who don't live in the NY area). What a difference! Not only is Chuck a cool dude to sit and talk shop with, he takes a true interest in ensuring you walk away with a tune that fits your vehicle to the T.
For the Long Island guys that think Westchester is too far to travel, I'd reconsider (being from LI myself). Well worth the drive and piece of mind knowing that a true pro tuned your ride...
Excellent job - thanks a lot Chuck!!!

If you fan is running when you first start they need to change the value in the fan table in the 192 cell...if you've got it higher than 25% the fan will run constantly even when the ECT is cold.
Sounds like you need to go back and get a retune.
