Symptoms of a clogged radiator o r inefficient cooling system include:

The engine overheating even with proper coolant levels.
The temperature gauge remaining high despite cooling system function.

To inspect, check if the radiator is warm all over cold spots indicate blockages. If needed, clean the radiator with water and a gentle brush o r have a professional clean it. Radiators typically last a long time but may need replacement after many years o r if corroded.
