After 5 years of racing i think i can answer this, there is a large variety of simple reasons why a car would overheat, heres the list
blocked radiator- this can be fixed by simply scraping the junk off of your radiator.
low or worn out oil- replace your oil and check for leaks- if there is a leak, replace the leaky part or line.
broken water pump- replace your "water" pump, water or coolant is used to keep most engines cool.
low coolant or water: add more water or coolant to your radiator, once again- check for leaks. (if you choose to use plain water, make sure it is distilled)
worn out engine- your engine may just be wearing out- if this is the case it will need a rebuiled or to be replaced.
faulty sensors- your engine may not be overheating at all, the sensors may just be broken.
broken radiator fan: this is a problem if the car needs artifficial air flow from a fan to cool itself when it is not moving, you can either replace the fan, or get airflow to the radiator some other way- such as driving, or just shutting off your engine before it gets to hot.
a fuse or a bad fan motor
maybe its u or da car
Each car overheats at a different temperature you need to look up and find out on the internet
You could be leaking coolant, your blower fan might not be working, etc.
Unless you have had the problem corrected by a certified mechanic, or have been told its okay to drive by a mechanic, then I would not recommend it.
check your fluids it is probably low on antifreeze and if it still does it change your thermostat that should fix the problem
Check the coolant fan see if it turns on when the engine gets hot. if not then your temp sensor could be bad
YES
Most likely it is a bad thermostat. The switch on the radiator fan could also have failed.
Thermostat regulator is malfunctioning, water pump pulley could be bad, gas bubble in radiator hose.
water pump
Shorts out and overheats or has too much resistance for some other reason and overheats.
