Default Overheating

This past week in The Smoky Mountains we got into some stop and go traffic. My 2017 stingray would run hotter than normal. Is this normal for the c7? Around 212 to 215. Not a hot day. 75 degrees. Thanks in advance

That's normal. I wouldn't worry about it.

Interesting question. The engine temp on my new C7 fluctuates between 2006 - 2010. My 2008 C6 temp ranged from 199 - 203. Glad to know its normal.

My '19 Z06 M7 is usually in the low 220s for both water and oil... you're fine.

220 on the analog dial is normal. Mine will creep up on hot days if I'm driving around with the rpms high. I turn the AC off, and it goes back to 220. I'm
