Earlier in the thread you mentioned about using a trip button to find out accurate coolant temp etc? Could you tell me more about this and what I could use it for and how to navigate through it? Thanks

Press and hold your trip button until the odometer shows test then quickly tap the trip button until you get to 19 it will then show Log_on & Log_off alternately, when it's showing Log_off quickly tap the button until you get to 7. it'll then show you the coolant temperature, do this with the engine running if you want to monitor it while driving.

Hmm im assuming my trip button is the button on the end of my indicator stick. I done this with ignition on but when I hold it, it just reset my trip distance back to 0 with Trip Distance 2. I held it on speed and my numbers were just increasing by mph every second. It didnt say test or anything

No, the trip button is the one on your instrument cluster next to the mileage reading

No sarcasm intended my good sir, simply meant as a helpful post. Apologies if it was taken the wrong way.

Any idea? :/

I've attached a picture of the button you need to press.

The speed limit is to warn you if you go over the set speed limit (set by yourself by pressing the stalk button)
