Hey Veeky Forums
I am a poorfag and I need some fuckin help.
I bought a 1999 Subaru Forester and it's needed some work.
It started overheating a few months after I bought it but this was solved when I got the coolant flushed and replaced.
Now it is overheating again but only intermittently.
At one point it will be operating fine and not even need to turn on the radiator, and at other times it will be pic related. And sometimes I'll even need to pull it over because it gets past the H.
I'd also like to add that the coolant reservoir was almost always very full (way past the full line) and just now in the past two weeks the level is all the way down to between low and full now.
This happened when I let the car sit with just the radiator running and not the engine.
Please tell me what's wrong with this fucking car Veeky Forums

Thermostat, to literally just thr radiator cap

Sorry I have no idea what you just tried to say.

Sad but true

It could be anything from the thermostat, to the radiator cap.

Not him but:

The thermostat might need changed or you just need to loosen the radiator cap a couple clicks (that's even if it's not a closed system)

checked

Do you think it could maybe be the water pump?

subaru headgaskets are like cardboard by now. seriously a 99 is very old. time to replace them
