    Well, when I first purchased my 5th gen a few months back she was running well. Tore her apart to do some winter maintenance, replace the exhaust, change fluids, etc. Now she is running around 4k at idle with a high temp. Any thoughts on wtf I did to make my baby sick?:confused:

    Hm not sure about the VFR but on a cage a suspect would be a vacuum line that got left disconnected after the work was done?

    May also be in need of a new thermostat. I just had to replace mine last summer.
