Restoring SV08 build plate?

Hi,

Is it possible to restore the build plate on the SV08? The pei on my sheet is damaged and I want to restore it without replacing the entire huge metal sheet. I can only think of sanding it down and then using acetone, but I've heard you can freeze some other sheets and just peel the pei off, but I don't think this is applicable for the SV08. Has anyone done this?

Dry pump noise from driver side?

Hi, this is my first car (2013 Lexus CT200H 2ZR-FXE engine, and I love it), doing all the proper maintenance etc, but there is this strange noise coming from the driver side. I am in the UK so its on the right, but it sort of sounds similar to a dying pump that is running dry. I suspect it could be a fan, as that is where the noise is coming from.

Temperatures are fine, no codes, no warning lights etc, just this noise. I replaced my coolant recently as well as transmission fluid (maintenance, not for this) but this noise has always remained and I am worried since I want this car to last as long as possible. Coolant level is fine too. What could it be? The sound is intermittent, it seems to come on if I have already driven my car within the last 6 hours or so, though this may not be entirely accurate.

It's a very loud and obvious noise when you are in the car, especially if it's quiet. I'd like to try understand what this is and if its something that can be fixed, any help would be appreciated!
