Overheating. Changed water pump, thermostat, radiator, upper and lower hose, fan switch/temp sensor, flushed system completly and the overflow tank still gets full and leaks on the ground and when enough coolant leaks out then it overheats.

I did try bleeding the coolant and still the car overheats. I cant understand what else could be causing this car to overheat. I even put a 165 degree thermostat in and no luck. The fans are working? I am stumped. I have had two other mechanics look at it and they have no clue.
