Car over heats, but coolant is cold when bleeding system.
04 Z 149.5K miles
Engine starts to over heat when I turn heater on full blast. I can drive a 1/4 then it starts to over heat as soon as the fans kick in. Fans work and thermostat is replaced. There’s so much pressure in the radiator hoses then when I bleed the coolant system the coolant is as cold as ***. Both hoses are nice and hot though. Please help.
coolant does go down so it’s sucking it up, the reservoir starts to over flow a bit. No heat in the cabin either. When I take the bleeder valve off the coolant comes out hot but it’s cold at the radiator and comes out cold from bottom of the radiator when draining.
