Received the following email from the dealership's service manager:
[my name] I spoke with Qlink today the raditors are on there way I should see them any day.

Thanks [service manager]

Sent this in response to the email:
Thanks [service manager].

The thing seems like it is worse than before- it was overheating yesterday just sitting there at idle.

(Overheating or not- the temp gauge was below the red zone, but coolant was spilling out at idle.)

It used to be that it would ONLY do that when the throttle was rev ved. It could sit there all day before at idle- without the cap on- and it would hardly hit the red zone when the fan would come on. Then it would cool down to below the screw in the gauge face, then go off until it heated up again. I never had coolant spilling out before just sitting there.

I'll watch for the radiator. Was there another part of this modification? (Did QLink put a different fan, sensor, or mounting change in the 2007 models? Or will it be pretty much identical except for size?) I can mod any brackets needed, but if you know of any mounting difference let me know and I'll start hunting through the aluminum pile this week!

Thanks again!
