Hey guys,
Just wondering i recently replaced my thermostat with a genuine honda part and had a full coolant flush. Problem is my temperture still increases when driving for about 45 mins. What other problem can it be now?

Thanks

did you bleed the the system?
there is a nipple at the cylinder head.. where the upper hose is for the eg's.
while the engine is running.. open the nipple.. don't open when it's hot, just open when it's cold/warm.
open it enough so some coolant comes out,
if its comes out at bubbles and not flowing as stream.. leave it open until it does flow constantly and not spluttering.

then close the nipple.
that might help.

if there is no bleed nipple.. open up your radiator cap.. jack the car up, support under stands, so the radiator is hte highest point, and leave your motor running until all bubbles have comeoout of the system.

yeah as mentioned above,

a radiator that is blocked will cause this,
it will cause the coolant to gargle and splurt out from the filler hole.

also when you fill your coolant your heater mjust be set to hot, to open the heater tap,

bleeding is very important.
