I'm not losing any coolant. I've had this light going on every morning for the past week now, and my system is completely full and bled.
I really think it's the sensor, but I hear they aren't the easiest to reach on our cars. My operating temps are normal and my fluid levels are all fine, and the light goes off at 180° (which would be my thermostat opening)

That's usually around the normal price for a pressure test. I hope it's nothing serious!!!

I just looked through the window at my Monte sitting in the parking lot. GROSS! Then went and checked the weather forecast, no rain for a week. I'm going to sneak out of work a little early, so I can go to the car wash before school! 
My car is nasty dirty from the two rains we've had in the last week. Under the hood, wow, I need to do an engine/ engine bay cleaning too. I drove through some muddy rain water that was about 4 inches deep, and the now when you open my hood, the whole engine/ engine area is COVERED in dirt. 
I'll have to clean that up, looks nasty.

LOL. I think I might hold off on the engine cleaning till spring, even though it is nasty, but with rain and all that, it just gets nasty all the time. But the exterior/ interior of the car are getting cleaned today! I have a FREE 18.99 car wash!

Got to school a a couple minutes early. Well, my free car washed turned into me paying for a detail. I'm to much of a sucker for my Monte. LOL. Oh well, I figured one more wax before all the rain would not be a bad thing. And the interior looks awesome. Plus they rain-Xed all my windows.
Anyway, the Monte looks awesome! I got to school, parked in thre parking garage as usual, and as i'm getting out of the car, two guys walked up to me...They said they see my car in the parking garage all the time, and drool over it. Then told me my car was "F***en Sick." It was a little weird how they just came out of no where as i got out of the car, but it made my day that they liked my car! Good way to start school! LOL
Well, I better get my *** to class...blah!
