Default Got it!

Well I just got back from Orlando yesterday with the car. She sure is beautiful! Only problem so far is the car seems to be reading hot. The temp gauge is at the top. But I dont see any leaks. Water is in the radiator. And its not steaming or boiling over or anything. I'm guessing maybe the gauge is wrong. Anyone have a problem similar to this? Will post picks of her soon!!

When my alternator died last week, the temp gauge went to the maximum, but the car was barely warmed up, let alone hot, does the battery light ever come on when the engine is running?

I ended up getting a tag out of Florida Kesk.

And no attzor, i dont have any lights coming on. Its not all the way at the top. It is 3 quarters of the way I would say. But they previous owner said it has done that the entire time they have had it. But who knows how true that is lol. But I was looking through the service records and it looks like they had it taken out by lexus and all the lights changed in the gauges. So maybe something got messed up?
