Hi All,

I have a commodore Sv6 (2005 model) great car. But recently I am facing heat issues. First off I replaced the fans (Holden original), good for a few days but the heat problem started again. I got the radiator serviced (full wash) with the best in the market radiator fluid. Just to be sure I got the water pump replaced, though it was good. My last doubt could be the faulty thermostat but I am not sure. I still have the heat issue. I feel sad because I love my car a lot. Can some one help me.

( I am in Saudi Arabia- Mechanics suck- Parts are usually not original)

I will put money on the fact they didn't bleed it properly as well.

His over heating problem occurred before he had his radiator flushed.

I'd say the thermostat.
As this hasn't (don't know why) been replaced yet.

Wow I didn't know they drive commodores in Saudi Arabia. Maybe it's not made for the desert heat of Saudi Arabia.
