Hi 13RUMWOOD,

Did you bleed the cooling system? Seems there are air trapped in system.

When engine is cold, open radiator cap, top up with sufficient coolant.
Run engine with
1. Heater set to max.
2. Radiator cap opened.

Top up coolant when it goes down. Once coolant level stabilises, close radiator cap and and retest.

I would suggest replacing the radiator cap as well.
