it could be that the water pump is out, maybe the thermostat is sticking, or if he did a coolant flush, maybe he didnt bleed it long enough. should take about 30 mins just to be on the safe side so their isnt any air pockets in the cooling system. but id try with the thermostat first, then bleeding and then the water pump.
