Reggie,
Was the new Radiator Brand New, or new to you ( as in second hand from another vehicle )?
Brand new should be fine, but new to you could still mean the radiator is the problem ( as you mentioned heating up at high speed, and normal around town )

Do you know if the new radiator has the same number of 'Fins per inch' as the factory original? I replaced a factory radiator in a Merc G Wagen with an aftermarket unit and they reduced the FPI. The result was inadequate cooling and the vehicle radiator got so hot it actually radiated the heat into the a/c condenser and would lock up the compressor with the higher pressures - was a bloody expensive fix, but a simple cause. Might pay to see if this can be checked?

i've seen previous threads on forums where people say the after market radiators dont work as well. afew people say they will only ever use genuine even though they cost more.

Well it seems the only things you haven't done is replace the water pump, the temp sensor and flushed the cooling system. Pick the cheapest and work from there.
