You really should consider flushing the cooling system. Lots of sand and crud from the casting process is floating around in there.

Then, consider making yourself (or buying) a passive coolant filtration kit.

Shouldnt that still be covered under warranty? My 09 is just coming up to 20k miles and need to find out what kind of service it needs. Maybe some of our experts will chime in. thanks in advance.

think that would be like oil and brakes not covered by a warranty unless its a bmw.
