Cold start: Heater core hoses hot to touch around 140-150. Lower hose hot to touch around the 200+ mark. Upper hose never got hot, as coolant bubbling up the rad neck and spilling over a bit. I shut off car at 213 degrees.

The spikes happen when moving/ at speed. Coming to a stop for traffic, it might inch slowly upward and then comes back down. These extreme changes only occur while moving. About to head out to get another jug and do this burping again. I posted pics of my rad fins, if your have any...

Swapped my headlights out the other day and here are pics of my rad. Are these fins concerning to anyone?

So I've put about 250 miles on it since I attempted to burp the system last night, covering all sorts of terrain and grades, including some light offroading (this is my job). Mostly stayed around the 210-222 range. Towards end of the day today it began the weird extreme fluctuations - would...

But did the cooolant ever erupt back up out the radiator? Special funnel or not, why did the fluid rapidly rise with engine idling for me? Had my oil changed yesterday by same shop that did the flush (that I stated I'd had done in my initial comment) and they said no residue/milkyness in the...

Ok.. -Jacked up front end, removed cap. - used coolant overflow funnel kit thing and have good seal (or so I thought at the time) - started engine. Added 50/50 gradually. Air bubbles galore. - squeezed upper hose , more bubbles. Eventually they stop. - check hoses. Upper never getting...

I will do this when I get home. My driveway is steep. Thank you!

Thank you!

The digital reading is all over the place, fluctuating 20 degrees or more in seconds. I'm really leaning toward air in the system myself, and I've heard how difficult it can be to completely burp it. With regards to a rad cap.... I purchased a new one from Autozone that is 18lbs. I look at...

Hi, sorry for the late reply. I didnt bookmark the page and lost this discussion! I cannot say for certain it was burped...properly..? We are going to do this ourselves this weekend after getting a coolant funnel kit.

Hi, thanks! I'm not able to work with the dealer (not going into reasons). The shop who did the initial flush after purchase did a pressure test before flushing. No issues, held pressure fine.

I just purchased a 2015 that began overheating on my way home from the lot. We have been chasing down this issue for 4 weeks now. The overflow tank is staying full and having to add coolant to rad about every 2 days, unless I've put on some miles. There is residue in the drivers side pocket...
