I forgot to mention that the radiator is 6 months old and it is a Behr aluminum radiator. All parts are OEM with the exception of radiator fluid. That can not be the problem. This car never ran hot until I overheated it in conjunction with a poor bleed job after I replaced hoses, radiator and t-stat.
