Clio mk1 overheating!



  Evo
Ok I'm fresh out of patience on this one. Clio mk1 1.4 1995 model. Approximately 3 months ago I changed the coolant because it was dirty, appeared to have bars leak sealant added to it at some point, although no leak is apparent.Once the coolant was changed and Correctly bled the car ran very hot and overheated on idle. To cut a long story short I have replaced the following trying to trace the fault:pressure capThermostatRadiatorHeater matrixKtec low temp fan switchAll of the above have made no difference, if anything it runs even hotter now. It will never survive a summer. Car has been compression tested and leak tested, doesn't loose any coolant and doesn't smoke.I'm out of ideas, it's fully comp so shall I just burn it and claim lol?

100% no leaks? You either have a blockage, air lock or faulty/f**ked water pump. I'd throw in a fault with the head gasket to but i'd rule the obvious and cheaper faults out first.
