my outback overheating driving through the mountains in utah and I managed to get it to a town by stopping several times to let it cool down. Once there a shop in the town replaced the radiator and thermostat. But it has overheated twice since then (only a few days), both time while having the A/C on. I turned it off the first time and the temp went back to normal. The second time turned the ac and the car off for a few minutes. Now I don't know what it could be, maybe they didn't replace the thermostat, maybe there is gunk in it, no idea. Any ideas would be helpfull.
