Thanks M8! GPU is getting a little hotter than I'd like it to. I've seen it hit 90° C a few times this week. I try and shut er down when it gets to 89°C. I know almost nothing about PCs, so I'm not sure what would suffice. PC parts seem to have gone through the roof. 2600 was 180+ last I checked. I...

Crazy that it's getting to 90c, the most I've had mine up to was maybe 85* and it's target temp is 83* and 59 at idle. I've got the 980Ti though which is now 5 god damn years old. O_O I had a buddy replace the thermal paste on my GPU. Didn't grab a pic, but more than half the card was completely BA...

If anything they got worse, as the temps stay almost exclusively at ...

I'm assuming the only way to check is to rip the mani off and hook the peepers on the sensor? It's not even easy to see/access with the manifold off, but yeah. If you go through all that effort, just replace the sensor. It's worth it. just bought the sensor now waiting on gaskets. yet another thing...

I'm going to disagree and say it's a huge pain in the ass. But it's also quite doable in a day or less by yourself with basic tools. I'd be willing to bet like five buckaroos that's your issue.

I haven't done any sensor or even considered it. . I''ve dropped the subframes on my best friend's c6z at least a half dozen times each. We've got it down to a science, even on jack stands lolol.

Wait...what's wrong with the oil pan? Oil leaks are very rarely the oil pan. Mine appeared to leak, but it was a combination of the front main seal, rear main seal, and oil pressure sensor. Those leaked down the oil pan and made it look like it was leaking when it wasn't. If you insist in doing the...
