Once again I would like to start out by saying I am new to the supra and turbo thing, and seem to keep finding new and interesting things on the Supra, be them good or bad.

Today I got into my car and started it up. On the far left side of the dash I saw what looked to me to be a check intercooler light. I am not sure of what it exactly means or if it is even the intercooler, but I am pretty sure it isnt the check engine light, as I believe I found that somewhere towards the middle of the dash. Does anyone have any idea what is infact going on? I knew I had problems with the "waterfall sound/bubbles", but am not sure if I actually heard it when I started it up this time, I might have been too focused on the light. I do live in WI, and it was snowing and the coldest the car has been since I have had it, but I dont think that should be a problem. Any help?

Thank you

Your bird has escaped from it's cage.

You'll need this card...take it to the nearest Toyota dealer.

the would be the birdcage light. aka the "check coolant" light. it means your overflow reservoir is low/empty. added to the fact that you have the gurgle in the dash, your headgasket is probably blown.

Any chance that it isnt a BHG, becasue It seems fine when I drive it, not like it is overheating or anything... and I dont hear the bubbly sound anymore...
