The car has been overheating for about 2 weeks now. After 3 mechanics and $700, it's still overheating. Have replaced the thermostat twice, the water pump, radiator and overflow caps. Any suggestions?

Hi there,

Are the cooling fans coming on at the correct temp. And check for any blockage of air through the A/C condenser, as this will limit air available for the radiator.
