Good Mechanic in a Hurry

My usual mechanic is on holiday until after the long weekend and I need to drive up to Waterloo on Sunday.

After three days of not driving my car, I started it up and was going to pick up my new CF hood (it just came in today). I started my car, and I noticed the check engine light was on. Drove around my block, didn't notice anything obviously wrong. Started driving over to Speedtech Performance. Everything seems fine, coolant gauge is reading normal. After driving home, I turned off the car and looked on team-integra for the OBD debugging codes. About 30 minutes later, I went back outside and popped my hood. My hood was freaking hot, The latch underneath my hood was almost painful to touch. I turned the car back on, coolant gauge is still reading regular.

So anyways, anyone know a good mechanic that's working Thurs/Fri preferably in the Scarborough Area? Anyone have any idea what is wrong?

Thanks.
