Check for air in the system again.

I had a pinhole leak that only leaked when I ripped on it, it would get air next to the thermostat thermostat and overheat. If I played with bleeding the air out or move it by running the heater etc. it would work perfect for a while. Took me until the leak got bigger to where it left a tiny spot on the pavement even when you weren't high rpm to find it. It was on one of the rubber hoses on the back of the block.

drop some ac tracer dye in your rad. get the UV glasses or a UV light and you'll find a leak

dont take it to a mechanic they dont know anything it could be a fan temp sensor, thermostat, headgasket, wiring or even a fuse or a fuse for the fan relay check everything.
