    Well engine wouldn't really matter too much; a stuck thermostat would be one reason for the overheating issue and you can normally tell by checking the radiator and/or radiator hose. If they're colder than they should be, it means the thermostat didn't open up to allow coolant to flow through the radiator.

    My resv only has a few drops in it. I’m waiting till it cools down and it’s probably been a slow leak somewhere is my guess

    At what temperature should I be of concern, I’m gonna top it with water and fill the res as well, but I’m gonna keep my scan tool plugged in to monitor it

    Before even going that far to assume, has anyone done any work to the vehicle?

    Maybe air trapped in the system?

    Not with any engine stuff in I’d say the last 5 months. The last thing I did was change the oil around then. My ac did go out recently and I just ordered all the parts for it
