You must check the fluid level more often than you used to, the stuff evaporates!
Ive driven it 4 days now with a full cooling system and it's still doing the same thing at slow speeds and idle. I'm going to check the fan this weekend and try to troubleshoot a few other things hopefully

I still cant find which fuse/relay works mine. Everyone says #40 and #50, even my manual does. But they are both empty on mine and even say empty under the fuse cover

OK I got it back from the dealer with a surprise. Yeah they said is was the Cooling Fan Assembly but says wires melted. Well it's not wires, its the connector that run into the Module thats attached to the fan. Can't figure out what it actually is but it's attached to the fan motor area. I think that burned up and not the fan motor. I might have to bypass so the fan works
