I have replaced my radiator, fan and thermostat and still the car overheats with the overflow tank bubbling. What else could the problem be?

Hi BoilinginAZ,

Check radiator cap pressure.

Did you bleed the system of air? Too much air trapped in system would cause overheating.

Fans are new, but are they working and at the appropriate temp reading?

A faulty or weak water pump would have reduced water volume moving through the radiators. So does clogged passages or kinked hoses.

Last and costliest of all is a blown head gasket.
