i spend about 3 months to solve overheat issue
i will tell you about my steps i did it before
1- cleaning radiator
2- cleaning cooling system from rust
3- change thermostat

i searching in YouTube i found exactly same problem happen in my car in this url


i hope to found any cheapest way to solve this problem
 
It helps if you state what engine you have, in the video it looks to be a diesel, but what engine is yours ?

I'm guessing it's a V6.
Is it blowing coolant out the cap before the engine is up to temperature? Or are the rad hoses getting hard before the engine is up to temperature?
 
the coolant bowling in cap after that the level for water increasing

Sounds like a head gasket to me. It's unfortunately quite common, especially if the coolant has run low in the past. The V6 won't tolerate low coolant, even for a second as the head gaskets are so thin.
 
ypu mean need to chang
