Overheating ?
07 460 with 130,000 miles, radiator, fluid and thermostat replaced just a couple years ago.
I am noticing that the engine coolant display goes up alarmingly lately when accelerating.
And yes it does go back down when rpm's are steady.
I don't remember this happening or not prior to a couple months ago, senility?
Anyway, is this normal? Yes I do have adequate coolant, is this possibly a thermostat issue or what is this?
Thanks for your thoughts

No, it is not normal. I think you are correct in believing this is a thermostat issue. My guess is the thermostat is stuck so at high rpm's it doesn't open enough to allow for proper flow of the coolant.
