The highest I've seen on the digital display is 232. However, the needle on the analog was barely two ticks above 210. I have no idea which is more or less correct.

My car seems to average in the 222 digital and 210 analog range.

Climate: Houston, Texas - summer temps mid to high 90's with @$$ loads of humidiy.

The analog and digital temps should read exactly the same. If they aren't, then it's probably because you're looking at the digital oil temp gauge vice the water temp. You have to hold down the music and compass buttons for 10 seconds to get the hidden menu with the digital water temp gauge.
I've hit 250 on the oil temp.
