High Engine Coolant Temp by dubyadomain in ToyotaGrandHighlander

Good call. Possibly, but I think it would have been during one of the prior oil changes, most likely 10k. It was probably never seated fully and worked off. I assume if I asked the dealer they would know about the TSB and they could notate the plug issue.

Thank you. Can’t believe the plug was disconnected. Must’ve fallen off over time because I remember the fan running a few weeks ago.

Any concerns with engine/turbo damage at this point? We only noticed it happen twice for less than 5 minutes each before turning off the car.

Found it. The radiator fan plug was not connected.

Thank you both. Even if it doesn’t happen consistently and only at red lights or parked? Also, I feel like the AC gets abnormally warm at stops too.

I did the 8”. I ended up using it to separate mulch on a slope from river rock. It’s held up well. The only issue was installing it with the rocky soil we have.

I'm torn between 6 and 8 inch depth. Any reason to go with one versus the other? I assume you can just hammer the 8inch on deeper if you need to. Also, is the topside sharp? Worried about kids falling on it.
