when i drive my temperature stays at normal, just to the left of the symbol in the middle. but if i stay at a complete stop for too long the temperature begins to rise. then will return to normal once i start driveing again. i dont push my car cause the mileage is high and ive had to fix this overheating a couple of times. i recently out a new water pump and timing belt and dont want the overheating to cause me to have to get another. i changed the thermostat when i got it. as well as fixe4d the cooling fan and my coolant system. i have no idea what else would be causeing this problem but it's getting really annoying. haha. but yea any help or advice would be much appreciated. thank you.

How does the cap look? Is it holding pressure? Did you get all the air bubbles out of the coolant when it was refilled?

 

well when your at a stand-still theres no air passing over the radiator so its not cooling efficently. if it gets too hot your fan should turn on or if its not (theres a problem) you can just turn on your a/c and the fans will turn on and cool your car off.

 

make sure your radiator is good if your fans are working properly
