Did you ever see a yellow or red overheating icon? I would get your car checked out.
The yellow overheat warning came on and the fan was maxxed out. I didnt let it get to a red warning.

Didn't get any low coolant warnings although the reservoir was dry.

I only have the Bluetooth OBD tool and an app on my phone to check, dont think I can check codes on that.
