Answer 3

Make sure you have properly bled your coolant system. The reservoir tank is strictly overfill so it has nothing to do with overheating. Make sure you turn your heater on when you bleed the system...if its like most vehicles you can find a small bleeder to crack to ensure your getting a steady flow of coolant and no sputtering.

Answer 4

It's not the thermostat's fault that the car overheat. The car overheat, due to a fault somewhere in the radiator system
