ive got a 2000 grand prix gt non supercharged.ive recently notice my temp gauge rising to 210 and slightly above it.i havent physically seen coolant leaking or any loss of it.ive changed out the radiator,thermostat,temp sensor and new coolant.i thought it might have a upper intake leak but like i said no leaks.please help me with some ideas?

^ What he said.
Hotter or more humid conditions outside will cause the car to run hotter.

thats normal with stock fan settings.
220 was the highest i saw.

ok...so where does everybodies temp gauge normally run?i feel around the 210 mark or slightly higher?

thats where its supposed to run with the stock 195* thermostat.

ya i run close to 200* on my 3.1.
210* is actually pretty normal. id start to worry at like 220+ while driving (never cared to take notice but it probly gets close wen sitting from heat soak)

stock t-stats are 210 on most cars. even if it got up to 220-230 on a hot day I wouldn't worry about it

fixed

the fan settings are around 220 though.

mine runs about 180 but comes up when in heavy traffic at slow speeds.. is there any way to change the fan settings so the fans kick on sooner?

Or get an Aeroforce gauge and you can turn them on and off

You could always install a switch bypasses the circuit that controls the fan. If the circuitry is left in tack then it operates as normal but you can still turn the fan on when you want.

thread is old and not a tech tip.
