dude my baby is overheating and I JUST fixed the damn thing. my brother put in more coolant and he doesnt know the hell he is doing. I know nothing about cars. i just drive the damn thing and I thought some of you guys would be able to help me with this. my boyfriend said he need to bleed the coolant before he adds more because its pressurized or something and will keep over heating or something.....................................let me know cause I DONT. :mad:

How about being a little more descriptive? what car is it? what mileage? what did you fix?

If you need a factory service manual.. there is one in my signature. Its for the BD series of cars.. which is like 95-99.. something like that. It might help your BF figure things out a little more..

But yeah, holy crap.. slow down a bit.. i can barely understand WHAT you are trying to ask. Start like this:

1. Make / Model
2. What is happening with your car.
3. What have YOU done do fix it
4. What is it NOW doing?
5. Additional info.

Might help us help you a bit.

Maybe the coolant wasn't properly bled, but this sounds like Head Gaskets.

How hard do you drive the car?
