210* is starting to get warm but is nowhere near overheating in a sealed, pressurized system containing 50% coolant mix.
Yes, A/C will naturally add heat which will raise the coolant temp. I do not see a problem here.

I know it's semantics, but I define overheating as "producing more heat than the cooling system can shed", which is the problem. I wouldn't mind if it went to 215F and stayed there (which it seems to do with the AUX fan so far) but the unbounded climbing is the problem.
Back to semantics, I never said it boiled over, of course. I don't think 215F is a problem in and of itself either, if the thermostat were a 210. But it's a 180F, and it shouldn't be running that far "out of control" of the t-stat in my opinion.
