[Freon]

Welp, water light came on, limped the 1/2 mile back home. Luckily it was just on a 3/4 (one way) trip to Starbucks and popped on partly on the way home. While I was waiting in the drive through the fans popped on full blast, but no light at that point. Car has just under 48k on the clock. Dash water temp never showed fully warm, oil temp was barely off the lower pin.

Ordering parts kit and a rental now... :P Watching the BavarianAuto DIY on Youtube now...

I haven't done any sort of racing or really hard driving in quite a while (had done some autocrossing about 2 years ago, one or two events last year)--just mainly DD rarely getting above 4k.

Looks like it'll be $1100-1200 all said and done to DIY with the ECS Level 2 refresh kit (figure why not) plus a rental for a week to get parts in and fix the car. Doh!
