Overheating at idle

Gents,

My 2011 turbocharged SS is having a little problem with overheating at idle when sitting for about 10 minutes. Where should I check first? Any of your help is appreciated.

It seems to only overheat with the A/C on...

I would check with my tuner. May be as simple as adjusting the cooling fans.

Yep, cooling fans or a restriction in the airflow over the radiator.
