CEL came on

Always stressful when this happens. Car is running slightly cooler than advised. Nice change from my older 911's always running hot all the time. Cool is good hot is bad.

Too cool is not so good either though.

There's a CEL light now? Is that just an extra light to warn you when your CEL is burned out or what?
