Is it actually overheating or just the gauge saying it is ?
Does it use water, push it out the expansion tank etc, heater blow hot and cold etc etc.
It could just be a lecky issue affecting the gauge/s rather than a actual real cooling issue, more details needed.

Do the cooling fans activate? (The info to do so is received by the same sensor that supplies the gauge reading )
