    Okay so, i have a few questions still in mind, and based on what ive read i cant find an answer that leaves me satisfied so here goes..
    Low coolant light is on- I flushed it with the lower radiator hose, washed and cleaned the overflow case. When i put the flush in, turned the car on, turned the heater on, sit till operating temperature and then drained it.
    Do i have to replace the thermo stat?

    ABS Light is on, i have no idea where to start?

    Backround information: Im second owner. 180k miles. Has been sitting outside for a while before it was given to me.
    What i've done so far that im proud of.
    Fixed HUD (:
    Replaced Coolant Elbow
    Washed The Engine Bay
    Brand New Alternator
    Brand New Battery
    Cold Air Intake

    Tstat should be replaced when doing a flush. Low coolant light is probably on from being low... Check it again, once it cycles through the system you lose some. Make sure the overfill has some too.

    ABS is probably from a bad wheel hub.

    Coolant light, unless its an overheating one that accompanies your temp gauge, is likely the low coolant level light. There is a sensor in the passengerside of the radiator. Right between the transmission lines. They like to get gunky and cause lights.

    ABS, like stated, wheel hub or wiring to them is the most common .
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.
