Brad, you can check to see if the fans are working properly if you like. Turn the AC down to the coldest setting when the car is fully warmed up and leave it running.

Ahead of the front wheels under the bumper cover you should feel hot air blowing down toward the ground. If both are blowing, you're good.

The temp gauge does move around on our cars... fortunately. It's a real temp gauge.

Believe it or not, the newer 987's do not do this... they put in a stupid one that shoots to the same place X minutes after the motor has been running and never moves unless it overheats, in which case it shoots to the red zone.
