by the temp light either blinking red or staying red and increased filling of overflow bottle with bubbles
i have replaced the cap twice since i got the car also from what i understand if the cap was not working right the system would not be under pressure and be unable to draw fluid back in when it cools off if the cap was bad.
a 5 min drive sometimes would cause an overheat. that is the odd part it does not happen all the time. and when an “overheat” happens it would have the dashboard light come on and cause the overflow tank to fill a lot. and a couple of time would even pop the cover of the overflow tank. and no from the times it has happened turning the heat up full does not change anything. but letting the car sit over night it will pull the extra fluid back into the radiator and might be perfectly fine the next day
I don’t use aftermaket parts the only non oem parts i used was the upper and lower radiator hoses. i had to replace my ir gun and since i got it have not had an overheat. I only know that there is a gates sticker in the engine compartment.
