Why is your 2000 Oldsmobile Intrigue still overheating after you changed the thermostat?

You could have a blown head gasket, if the thermostat wasn't letting coolant through to the radiator, the engine overheats, and the head gasket no longer seals. OR the overheat could have been so bad that the head could have warped, this is very easy for an aluminum head to do. OR the head cracks in between the intake and exhaust valves, this is the most likely possibility, exhaust gasses entering the coolant at 700 deg.+ will most definetly cause the car to over heat. Good Luck
There is and easy fix pull your thermostat and drill two holes in the termostat and orient one up and one down. This will allow the trapped air to get to the coolant tank. Relpace the gasket if its old and hardened.
