So, recently I have gotten the "check coolant level" message. I go look at the reservoir, open the cap (cold) and the level is well above the "kalt" line.
Possibly related, but not sure, the oil level is bordering on low on the dip stick (added 7 quarts on last change, close to 6k miles ago, so due for another change soon anyway).
I am also getting oil pressure light when at idle, but it did that right before last change as well, and went away after I changed it.
I don't think it is a head gasket because that would likely go in the opposite direction.
Could thermostat or water pump be failing? I haven't had overly warm temps when the engine warms up (usually sits a little over half way up the gauge and has since I bought it).
Ideas? Should I just do a coolant flush next oil change and see what happens?

"check coolant level" ...high? I wasn't expecting that.
