I have a 1994 maxima 3.0. Car was overheating so i replaced the water pump, thermastat and the radiator. Car is still over heating after running about ten minutes. Does it mean anything if the coolant container is bubbling when car is running? any ideas on what it could be or what I can check?
Thanks

Air bleeding was not executed properly: theres air pocket(s) blocking fluid flow. Read this link; the issues are relevant whether you have VE -or VG -engine. (Cabin flow, see previous page.) http://www.cardomain.com/ride/748507/8

One way to know that air is out, is to drain all and fill/measure the exact amount of fluid - all has to fit in. See fluid volume specs, via page 26
