Ended up draining the radiator once and refilled with water and water wetter, wasn't able to do multiple purges. So I at least got a higher water concentration.

Did another track day yesterday in serious heat for the Northwest, air temperature was 96F or so. Car was getting hot really quick in the heat of the day - was climbing near the 300 degree mark for oil temperature after about 4 laps, at which point I would do a cool down lap. Maybe I should have just kept pushing to see if I was actually running into the errors still.

I also noticed the shifting slow down on the DCT in the last session, again no errors, but there was a delay in shifting of about a half second.

Generally speaking it seems like these cars struggle keeping cool. Maybe a vented hood would help a bit. I'll likely do another water only purge of the radiator.
