i have an 03 cobra and It ran hot I changed the thermostat water pump and the radiator cap but it still over heats...it has over a 130,000 mls on it... i'm almost out of things to check before I take it to a shop.what other options should I try before it goes to get checked out and fixed?

Gauge? Boilover?

Is the waterpump new? Mileage? What have you tried?

Does this engine have the crossover tube? Did you try flushing? How about testing the temp sensor? What is mileage?

Did you fill correctly?

Water came from the radiator. It was flushed first. The water pump is new the thermostat
Is also new. There was a little steam came from the exhaust maybe once

Did you re-fill the system through the cross over tube? .... If not, you may have an air pocket!

The crossover tube stays full..the air has been let out every time it over heats. When the car is at idle the water in the radiator doesn't boil or move. After I drive it around the block then water comes out of the radiator.

I haven't checked the temp sensor... Over 130k

Did you refill the system through the overflow tank or cross-over tube??

Ok... I had a pressure check done and water is only coming from the new water pump... I hope that's the problem...
