my car has the same problem with the running hot. i changed the thermostate, the water pump, flushed the system, and it still runs hot. now my friends car has a sticker saying it has to have a certin type of antifrezze. is there something i dont know and there is a certin type the contour needs. just a thought. i am lost and dont know what eles to do. i just drive and watch the gage i know that not good for the car but what eles can i do. o and the only other thing i can think of is the head or the head gasget but i am not about to spend the money and that not be the problem. any help would be nice thanks. sorry i suck at spelling.lol.
