    cooling problem help.

    91 318is

    recently the car been temperature been hoovering around 3/4 on the temp gauge, this happen during normal city driving and on highway its abit over 1/2.

    -ive recently change a bad fan clutch.
    -recenty bleed and replace coolant.
    -coolant level is fine.
    but the car still runs hot at about 3/4 on the temp gauge.

    one thing i notice is that the passenger side radiator hose is only warm to touch well the drive side is fully hot, is there still and air bubble?

    any ideas?

    thanks in advance

    I have a similar issue I have replaced, coolant hoses, thermostat, water pump, temp sensor and bypassed the heatercore...my car still overheats only when idling for atleast 10 mins never gets too hot. I sourced it down to my radiator

      tighten the ground nut on the back of the cluster at the temp gauge.
