Default GT2RS operating temperatures?

I was hoping to find out what water and oil temperatures you're experiencing with your GT2RS. Thanks in advance!

You will find the water temp gauge sits 90 or below when in pdk sport mode and when switched off runs disconcertingly hotter at 102 to105, but apparently fine (so the dealer says).

I noticed that too. Why do the temps go down when the car is in PDK Sport ?

I think the car needs higher temps to minimize emissions and help meet emission requirements?

This is reassuring to hear. With the temps out in the low 90's (F), I was watching a bit nervously as my car's water temp climbed and hovered around 223 or so in street & highway driving (then threw a CEL warning which may or may not have been related to the heat. The dealer just said check/clean the gas filler cap seal and drive it a couple days to see if it auto-clears. When I hooked up the ODBC-2 diagnostic a couple days later the CEL was still on but there were no active codes so I just cleared the error (dealer-approved action) and am hoping it doesn't pop back up again). I'd just gotten the car 360-degree wrapped so maybe the wrapper/detailer bumped/loosened the cap while they worked.
