    300M overheating

    After checking the I-net this problem seems to be pretty big for the 300M's.

    Problem is that no one know's why the '01 300M is overheating.  Car WAS fine until I changed the overflow tank myself to save some money.  I changed the overflow because of a small leak.  After that car began to overheat.  Took to shop #1, they said the system had air in it (made sense) so I paid to have them bleed the air.  That did not fix problem.  Took to another shop and they thought maybe the thermostat and flush and fill.  I paid them for that and it still hasn't fixed the problem.

     Car run's hot and I have turned on heat "full blast" to prevent it from getting into the red.

     Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks.

    did you ever figure out what the problem was?  Got a 02 doing same thing. Another Blog in 5/07 has same problem.  He stated he took out the thermostat, solved the problem.
