Isn't it amazing what these guys will make up in order to seperate you from your money? The truly evil part is, the car would have had the same problem after all that work was done. Then, they might have found the radiator, ... after they replaced the water pump and the expansion tank and ... and ... and ... .

Good luck belagirl,
