I've had the headgaskets replaced and heads checked, replaced the water pump and thermostat and quite frankly im at a loss! it can overheat in a matter of minutes and when it does i lose my heaters! i know there in no air in the system so just wondering if you have any ideas???

most likely culprit is clog in the system, either heater core or radiator, even a hose could have something blocking coolant flow. need to flush system.
