I have had a new radiator replaced in my Subaru Impreza 2000 model. I am having problems when the motor car get hot it push the water out of the over flow pipe and back into the reserved tank. I've had my dad have a look he thought it was the thermistor on the bottom of the engine but it works fine. Just wondering if you would have any idea to what it wrong with my car?

A little bit of overflow into the reserve is normal. It draws it back inb when cooled but if it is excessive you may have head gasket damage from the previous overheating when the radiator first failed.
