I have an old 1987 525e bmw and it has a big issue with over heating, the radiator is full, after we cleaned and bled the air out. We cleaned the thermo sensors on the radiator. Still over heats. What else could it be?

Bad thermostat? Is the radiator fan working?

Get a head check done, this is a simple chemical test for Co in the cooling system, if so you will have a head problem.
