Chip will not change your temps. (unless pushing it hard of course) and exhaust will drop them
a bit (few degrees).
With MB 0W30 you should be around 200 F, 5W30 would be around 210 F.
Factory oil? around 225 F.

They did, you probably have dyno 10W40 or somehting, change it and let AoA know
the name of the dealer that still refuses to do the right thing and ONLY use 5W30/0W30 synth (is that too much to ask??).
What good is the freaking 'Free maintenance' if they are gonna f*ck your car.
Reason #1 why I do my own oil changes OR bring my own oil, mark oil filer and check oil color after they do it (you can tell I don't trust them, and you shouldn't either!).
