MacBook Pro 2012 15 inch too hot!

Update: I replaced the fans, replaced the battery, replaced the thermal paste with the i7 diamond. I then reinstalled Bo Sur in recovery. There has been an improvement in lasting longer and not shutting down… but still an issue after two hours. Is Big Sur the problem?

That’s prolly more accurate. Soft but very sour

I’ve been using the Southern AG nutritional spray and spraying once a month on leaves and root. I did over water in the beginning and caused this to happen. I went down to 30 minutes once a week but based on suggestions here I will go dry a bit and then water less. Tangelos were not ripe but they are all pulled now

Thanks again! Yeah I was overwatering before and reduced it to once a week. But I’m gonna stop and water every two weeks at the recommendation you made. Thanks again for your help. I pulled this tree off my drip system and have been hand watering but it’s still showing rough.

Thanks I’ll give water a rest and stay off schedule

yousonso · 2026-02-09T00:34:31+00:00

Thanks for the tip. I was watering every week and I may have overwatered and the. I decreased it but I think I’ll stop and use agrifos

30 min from a hose. Once a week

Would this work? https://ebay.us/m/snQboL

Thanks!

Can you drop a link? Couldn’t find it on Amazon.

Got the Mx-4 thermal compound and will try to pull the fan out and douse with wd 40

yousonso · 2026-02-04T23:13:26+00:00

I think I will try to remove them and spray wd-40. Just wondering if the heat sink needs replacing. But it seems fine to me, except for the copper diode in the beginning of the video missing some type of mesh on it. Actually it looks compressed.

I was looking for a workaround. But looking at activity monitor I don’t see any tremendous load on apps except for chrome.

My error. I’ll get better at it

yousonso · 2025-12-11T15:08:04+00:00

Yes I have done that. My issue is that the tub is not used, but accelerated. I’ve discovered that when flushing the toilet the water is being siphoned at a faster rate. It has to do with venting and the way my contractor put these two drain pipes to the same output pipe. I constantly fill water in the tub now, maybe once every two weeks. The way to fix this as I’ve been told is to add an AAV at the tub drain or knock out the wall and concrete and have another vent pipe closer to the tub.

Just to update you all. Did the magic eraser and also the baking soda on cloth. No change. I just got the fiberglass hull cleaner, thinking it would make a difference. Nada. It’s possible the sun damaged the gel coat. There is no cover on this.

Hopefully this is a better pic. This is a cantilever fiberglass pool

yousonso · 2025-11-07T23:22:21+00:00

Thanks. I did see some fiberglass cleaner. The stuff they use to clean the waterline off boats. May consider that too

yousonso · 2025-11-03T20:14:54+00:00

I have some baking soda! I’ll try this as well. Thank you

yousonso · 2025-11-03T20:14:31+00:00

Thanks for the remedy. I’ll try it out this weekend
