Sorry you hadn't stopped by sooner, I think we can help (I think, because I'm trying to understand for sure).

So, the overshoot is when you start up? Start up sooner so it will stablize with time.

When it first starts, it's throwing pellets out to try and start a fire. The overshoot is completely normal.

What I do, is as it's approaching the temp I want, I open the door and dump heat so it won't have as much overshoot.

Have you just turned it on, let it run for say an hour.

How is it for temp after that time?

Well for me this was a simple fix for my IQ4, i leaned to warmup the unit for about and hour before the cook, i found out that it held the temp great and less temp swings, also note i have about 30 cooks on mine since i bought it this year and after bieng told let the unit break in, i see what there saying the more cooking i do on it the more stable my temp hold is.

Hope this helps

Thanks for the advice. It seems to be doing way better now. Did a very long low burn overnight and it held tight. Hopefully, the problem has been taken care of. Thanks again...
