my car always runs really hot, if i dont have my heaters on it goes up to 100 where as my bros corsa doesnt go above 90. i just ran the car up with the lid off the water bottle to see if there was any air locks but the car got to max and water was going everywhere. fans didnt kick in either. do i need a new rad?
engine is a 1.5td.

Faulty thermostat.
Faulty waterpump
Airlock
These are the easiest things to diagnose that I can think of
