Suzuki JLX 97. 4dr. before, i had a problem, when engine gets hot like the middle in temp ( normal operating temp ) the problem starts to occur. I cant shift in to any gear. what i do is I turn off my engine and let it cool for 15-30 mins. and it will work and shift in like no problem, as it starts to heat up, it also starts getting in gears difficult until it wont shift in any gear at all. - a mechanic told me to replace the pressure plate. '' so i did'' and i did not fix the problem. then I noticed a string of my cable clutch is popping out of the cable line ''plastic coating'' like 3 of them. -- is it possible that its just a cable clutch problem?

i may be wrong but that sensor is for the ac not for engine operation and at 113 if its not that hot then the sensor is bad but if its summer its ok,, your engine works with intake air temp
Air can be purged. While your engine is cool remove radiator and reservoir caps. Place funnel in radiator. Turn heat to the highest position and start vehicle. Add coolant to radiator as needed while vehicle warms up. You should see bubbles coming out of radiator. Fill reservoir to between cold and hot fill lines. Replace caps when bubbling stops but before coolant temperature reaches normal operating temperature. Never remove the radiator cap until engine has fully cooled down.
The thermostat is stuck closed replace it and the problem is fixed. I would recommend replacing the hose as it has been weakened from the swelling and overheating.
You have air in the cooling system. With the engine cold, remove the radiator cap (or overflow bottle cap if no radiator cap) and let the engine get to operating temp. Add coolant if it is low. There is no way to guess which of the 3000 codes your car has set without scanning it for codes.
Don't run the car without a thermostat. It helps the car to reach operating temps quickly. also helps burn off blow by gasses by keeping the temps up and steady. check your radiator level once driving a few miles. Their may have been some air pockets that purged and need to be replaced with additional fluid.
When you say "red hot" do you mean actually glowing? If so, you'd have serious trouble. If you mean only hot to the touch, that's normal - these engines run pretty warm. And yes, the gauge in the center is normal - the OEM temp gauge is a dummy gauge, only meant to show you that it's either cold, overheated, or mainly OK. Use your oil temp gauge as your main indicator - at least it's graded numerically and you can actually see the oil temp.
