Car is overheating! Replaced the radiator cap because the overflow level remained unchanged while vehicle was overheating. That new cap resolve that issue but still overheating, turn heater on and lukewarm air comes out. Had the thermostat replaced in October 2018.

Good afternoon,

Did you pressure test the cooling system for leaks?

I would replace the thermostat again. That was October and this is now. It may have been damaged from the overheating.

The coolant sensor has no effect on the overheating.
