You are correct, there are 16 dots on this temperature meter. In the 7 years I have owned my Z never has the 8th dot lit for me. I have seen 221 deg F. on my OBD2 reader software, both Dash Command and Torque. I am however acknowledging dots 8-16, and truly wonder at what temperature they do light up. I would be alarmed at the 8th or 9th dot lighting up.
