Sorry everyone, I didn't have email alerts turned on, and I have been away from my computer for a few days.

The thermostat went bad. I replaced it, and I was still having issues, but the problem after replacing the thermostat was that there was an air pocket somewhere in the line. The problem has been resolved.

Alfa Subaru in Sac. This was done right before I purchased the car. The previous owner informed me that it received a new water pump, timing belt, timing belt tensioners, new radiator and radiator hoses.

Any warranty from the place that did your motor rebuild?
I was not the owner when the rebuild was done, I received the car with 5k miles on the new rebuild. I do not believe there is a warranty for the motor rebuild. I have put about 15k miles on it since then. Considering the overheating problems have been resolved, I am very confident that the car has no headgasket issues.


Thanks everyone.

Also, I brought the car to Kspeed today. The suspension issue has been fixed. A bolt had loosened. Simple fix.
