I changed the thermostat, the hoses, clutch fan. And it stills over heat. I can drive it but once I'm on the highway it will heat up but when the car is at a standstill it won't overheat. I also opened up the radiator cap when cold turned the car on to see if the coolant was flowing and it was. I'm just stuck now can you please help.

Have pressure checked for internal leak and then when it's overheated, stop engine andplace handon various areas of radiator. If you feel cold spots the rad is no good

I would agree that is sounds like a radiator issue.
