Could be a blocked radiator internal or external, or a faulty viscous fan hub..

Check fan hub has resistance to turn..

Check radiator for debris..

SOURCE: seem to be losing oil in coolant of 2003 impala 3.4

hello your intake gasket is most likely leaking internally into your engine.pretty common problem.the plastic and silicon gaskets get weak over time.

SOURCE: Kia Rio overheating although everything seems ok

Possible early signs of a water pump problem. A failing waterpump will circulate coolent when the RPMS are high but when you slow down, so does the waterpump, thereby causing overheating.

SOURCE: 2000 Boxster overheating, blowing coolant out of

Whatever you do, do not drive. I got the same problem about 4 hours ago and tried to get home. Half way, no oil pressure, overheat, silly noise from the engine.

bubbling when the coolant is full indicates a head gasket problem. have a compression test done to check for gasket/cracked head. have a flow test done on the radiator as the cores may be blocked reducing coolant flow.

Kzte overheating on high speeds

Go to a 6 pound radiator cap,if you an find one.Your present cap is too strong,not allowing excess pressure and coolant to go to the reservoir.You'll notice when hot that not a lot more is in the reservoir than when cold.The cap chamge will fix this.I'm a Toyota lover and that's how I cured mine.I did have a hard time finding a 6 pound cap,their pretty much an obsolete item.Go to junk yards and find one,but replace the rubber gasket.

2002 malibu runs hot.

Sounds like you have a faulty head gasket or maybe a cracked head.This can cause overheating and the check engine light to come on.The code for the o2 sensor is probably caused by coolant getting into the exhaust system and coating the sensor.The coolant fan may work but it cannot remove enough heat from the rad to make the engine cool off.Try some engine coolant stop leak to see if it will help.This maybe only a temperary fix.Let me know if you need more.MOE

VOLVO S80 "FALSE" ENGINE OVERHEATING OR IS IT

That sounds like a thermostat. Usually not an expensive problem, but one you want to address soon. Right now, it's convinced that the engine is hot, and is wide open. It could easily flip to thinking that the engine is cold and stick closed. THEN your radiator WILL boil over.

Heater issues

right beside the degas bottle top thare is a black hose sticking out that has a screw in plug in it that can be removed with a straight screw driver. remove this plug and start vehicle and let it run with heat wide open and on high till a STEADY stream of coolant is presant then replace plug - dont over tighten. this bleeds the heater core.
