    Thanks again @rjparker !

    The video I posted originally is the video I took of my car while in maint mode. There is no note below the video saying changing water pump fixed the issue, because I have not changed it yet ... had not even thought about it until you mentioned. I recently replaced spark plug, coil on the cylinder 4 with non oem bought from Amazon. I also replaced all four fuel injectors and MAF sensor, non oem from Amazon. I just wanted to see if that'd make any difference, as previous to that I was getting P0304 and P219A.

    Ok I guess I read your post 229 differently.

    I would have left it off after that stumble and only partial recovery. Couldn’t stand to watch further, did it survive?

    Hi @Mendel Leisk I left it running in maintenance mode for around 15 minutes and turned it off only after noticing coolant boiling in reservoir and overflowing from hole underneath cap. I had also noticed high temperature light on dashboard and prior to that I measured temperature 235+ degree F. The temperature must have climbed to 245 right before I turned it off.
