i replaced the radiator and water pump and timing belt almost a year ago so i don’t believe it’s trapped air in the coolant system i don’t leak coolant and it’s just a mess right now. about a week ago i over heated my temp gauge isn’t accurate. i put half a gallon of coolant and the over heating stopped and up to now it stared over heating smoking from the coolant reservoir and i put some coolant and drove it home and it stared smoking a lot from the ac line i had the heater on to help the over heating. i pulled over TON of smoke came out and now when i start the car it shakes but still drives fine… im a bit nervous if i blew the head gasket or not.

idk what’s going on but i started to over heat and so much is going on weird noises

i changed the radiator almost a year ago so it can’t be trapped air from coolant everything was fine till last week u started smoking from the reservoir and i pulled over added half a gallon of coolant and now same issue i just poured some coolant now there this weird noise coming randomly when i accelerate

i took the water pump and the timing belt i think to a mechanic and i did the radiator and the temp
gauge myself im over heating where it smokes i put in coolant half a gallon a week ago over same issue can anyone give me some tips ? im at 156k miles rn lol im thinking of getting some 2000s is350 or 250 atp
