2000 ford focus zts overheating despite having replaced water pump and thermostat fans are working any ideas what this could be?

Did you ever find an answer to this question? My 2002 Focus is doing the same thing. The water pump and thermostat have been replaced, but the temperature gauge still show that it gets hot if I drive the car for about 30 minutes in stop and go traffic. If I slow down or stop, I will see the needle move. Once I get going, it will come back down to normal or will do so once the fans kick in.

A 2001 Mitsubishi Spyder will experience overheating even though the fluid is good and the fans are working if the thermostat is stuck. A stuck thermostat will prevent coolant from circulating and will quickly overheat the engine.

Did you check the thermostat to make sure it is working? If it is and you have enough coolant, you might want to check for head gasket issue. You can rent a tester at Autozone. HTH
