1999 VW beetle over heats...a LOT
Sometimes, if the leak is small, when car is running and engine hot, you do not get dripping under the car because water is getting vapourized, before dripping down.
Check water level, if water level is going down, then there is either another leak, or the head gasket is going.
When head gasket starts to go , water is vapourized into the engine.
If car overheated after the radiator problem, it is not uncommon that this may had damaged the head gasket, go back to the dealer and complain, as after replacing radiator, the car should had been inspected properly for additional problems.
