Btw - oil / filter change today w 10w-60 oil at dealer. This is driving normally. In traffic.

Something is up. Either incorrect reading or high temps. It was just below the mark between 210 and 300 and by time I snapped pic, dropped a bit.
Considering a full synthetic oil starts to break down around the 240 mark I'd be worried also. Tracking my car, my temps run around the 1/4 past mark. Maybe a lower viscosity oil?
