My car started overheating, I replaced the thermostat about a year ago. Today I replaced the radiator and it is still doing it. the guage gets to half way after about 2 miles. When I stop white smoke(steam) that smells like anti-freeze comes out.

Hi firemann247,

You have a possible fault with the head gasket.

Does the coolant level in radiator goes down?
Have a pressure test done to confirm if the head gasket is good.
