C6 getting too hot?

[Alex14SS]

So I just tuned a manual c6 and after cranking up the fans to 92% all the way, it?s not cooling it but rather getting hotter? Could this be something mechanical? Or the tune messing with the thermostat?

How hot is hot? Are fans actually cutting on? When is it getting hot, idle or highway?

No way the tune can affect the thermostat.

It’s on idle after cranking them up.. very weird.

Almost as weird as this thread.

Lets start with wtf does that mean. Whats on idle? The engine? Cranking them up. The fans? Your not spinning them faster? Just adjusting the ECT vs DC? Also, there is no log or tune posted

It's the tune messing with the thermostat. Need that fixed pronto. Adjust a/c pressure at 11.2% fixed it for me. Good luck

Can you elaborate on this? What did you adjust exactly? I have a similar issue of engine coolant temp slowly creeping up past 220+ only during idle.

Have you got a log of it getting hot? Would need fan speed, fan 1 on/off, fan 2 on/off, ect, ac pressure, ac clutch on/off, baro, plus your normal channels. And what the ambient temp is. Stock setup? Radiator fins clean and not bent? Coolant happy? No big assed aftermarket coolers in front of the radiator? Pictures of your setup if aftermarket would be good. If stock, no need for pics.

Not sure if a language thing, but typically in the US, thermostat means the mechanical device that opens and closes to control water flow and not connected to the tune.

Lol, correct. I was taking a swipe at the op for a terrible post. But the toilet water does spin backwards here in Australia . God damn millimeters were working out good and dandy until you lot started using mils. WTF lol
