Ugh that gauge is causing Nissan and this forum more headache then its worth. Look at the corvettes, temps approaching 300F (150C) are common and no limp mode.. In most cars you have no idea what the temps are. I bet most stock sports cars if taken to the track will get to 280+ no problem and even day to day driving will get them there too. The thing is you don't know in these other cars because there is no gauge.
If Nissan could require synthetic they wouldn't even need to put that limp mode in since synthetics can take well over 280 deg.
