Could be just low on fluid. Check the little window below the oil fill in the trunk and see. The sensor in the tank is very sensitive so you may think that it is OK but the machine might not. Check cold. If so add fluid and bleed as per instructions and the light should go off, but you should be on the lookout as to where it went. Maybe they just didn't bleed the system correctly.Pull dipstick and see the color of the oil. If you have not cleaned the front radiators yet it is a good place to start to stop the high heat. Many things can cause it to run hot and you can just start addressing each one till you find the problem or a clue. Ed
