my 2016 auto i have noticed the fan will run the hole time the car is running. Stays in v8 mode and trans temp stays all the down on cold. Fan also stays on for a long time even after short runs. Any help on this would be great, thanks

Do you have the AC on the "hole" time?

I have experienced this once. It has to do with thermostat and temp sensor. In my case I pulled the negative cable on the battery to reset and it has worked perfect ever since.
