Hey guys. Last week my MM started to overheat with no heat coming from the vent. I changed the thermostat and followed the procedures to burp the system. Then, I cranked her up and found heat. Then, I pulled off and she began to overheat again. After I made it home, I burped her again. Then, I drove again and she overheated. A few days later, I noticed that she doesn't overheat while idling, only when I'm driving at 2000+ rpm. Does anyone know what the issue can be?

Sounds like you still have air in the system.
Try parking the car on a slight incline with the front of the car on the uphill side, and burp again.

The fans seem to be fine and I am getting good air flow even above 2000 rpm. What do you mean "Lwr spoiler still there"?

I will do it again tomorrow. Thanks!
