Default Temp Problems
Hoping you guys can help me out a bit. What is your suburbans normal running temp? My truck has been going up to 210 for a couple mins under normal driving then it quickly goes down to 160. I find it suprising that where its 30 degrees out the trucks getting to 210. Any ideas what the problem could be?
