Just replaced my radiator and my car is still reaching 212 highest. And now m y ac doesn't seem to be working either. Leaked some transmission fluid because I didn't have the lines pushed in correctly, but already refilled that and it's fine. Just want to know why it's slightly overhearing and why my ac doesn't work. I need to drive my car and am nervous to do so.
My car has 115000 miles.
