I putzed around with flushing the radiator and changed the thermostat, which did no good. The answer was to replace the radiator. It will cost you $200 and about 2 hours of time. If I had replaced it sooner I probably wouldn't have seized my turbo or blown my head gasket. Both of which I wasn't very happy about.
If you haven't try flushing with a good flush, prestone makes a 10 hr flush that is probably the best, then change the thermostat if the problem is not resolved immediately then change the radiator.
