Still it's usually only 10 off. I'd get a cooler from mike asap. 210* is where it gets scary

Take it to the dealer and tell them your guages are bad, they'll replace the cluster.

My oil was off by 20 lbs, speedo was incorrect, trans and temp was wrong as well. Its a freebie and covered under warranty. They did even though my truck is heavily modded and after spanking the managers SRT..:D

I am out of warrenty and yes the guages do go bad in these trucks I bought a new one that is the as style and the guy tuned it to work for the diesel so it read correct so I don't think gauge is bad
