Also the car stays hotter than before. Even at night last night the water temp gauge was reading right at 210 when before with the 160*thermostat it always read much cooler.

What should I be looking at next?
also have this problem, when sitting in traffic temp goes up slowly takes about 5 mins and its past the 100 degree marker, sorry im canadian lol. also car goes into a kind of safe mode not much power. so to let you guys know my car is defenatly not leaking coolant anymore, i hydro locked the engine last month and now all gaskets have been changed with new coolant, and bled properly. it still does this and gets ffffing anoying.
but i think its a fan problem cuz turning the a/c on helps i can heear the condensor fans turning and it lowers the temp or stops it from going up for a while. but i my radiator fans r only working sometimes i think.
