So I have fluctuation in temp range. When fully warmed up the car sits at 194 degrees F. Then after 5 mins time laps by then the highest I see the temp go to is 208 degrees F. But it will not get any hotter. Also I sat in the car for 20 mins watching the temp on the Cobb AP. The fans kicked on and off many times, and it would cook itself down to 194-192 every time, it's just weird because it will go from 192-208 just from idling for 20 mins, it would do it rapidly, and not overheat. Because the normal operating temp for our cars is 200 degrees F...so the gauge cluster I'm reading is way above the second line, but on the Cobb AP is only 208 which should be on the second line exactly, correct me if I am wrong.
So the guesses I have what the culprit could be is:
Coolant temp sensor
Air (I have burped the system many times with my 50$ funnel.) lol
So I kno it's not air, maybe the cap on the reservoir?
Or the cap on the mishimoto radiator? Or both caps? Because the system has been burped and I check every morning and the reservoir is literally 1 tbsp of water that is low...
I have no leaks, and no coolant in my oil.
I have no oil in my coolant. No bad head gasket.
Please tell me what you think it could be. I feel the temp range is normal for a built motor, but my cluster giving me a hotter reading than what the Cobb AP is giving me is whats concerning me. So bad coolant temp sensor?
