So, I got the NEW dealer bought water pump and thermostat on Tuesday, car worked fine, drove it around a few times in traffic, no problems.
Today, went to run some errands.....luckily near the house, the temp gauge started inching up again just in front of the house.
Looked around the engine bay and smelled coolant when I saw steam coming from around the radiator. I saw a stream of coolant coming from the front of the radiator. Radiator shot................
Bought a Behr OEM replacement with overnight shipping, hopefully to receive it tomorrow and install it myself.
HOPEFULLY..............this is the end of the overheating issues. __________________
