I never tried new sensors. My reasoning behind that was this...

The sensor for the GAUGE is seperate from the sensor that sends the temp to the ECU correct? Well I not only notice the temp is high in DSMLink, but also the gauge reads higher then I'm used to seeing. So I had a hard time believing 2 sensors are both bad, and both reading slightly high.

Anyhow, I drove around quite a bit today with the new FMIC. I haven't been logging, just watching the gauge, and it's already running noticably cooler. Hell tonight, the gauge was barely over that first tick mark marking the normal range! Much much cooler then before. I'm very happy about that!!!
