The Engine Coolant Temperature in the Engine is higher than it should be.

Check your radiator coolant level - also your radiator may be clogged or thermostat may be stuck.

Your temperature gauge indicates overheating but water and oil levels are fine and heater works what is wrong?

If you are absolutely sure you do not have air trapped in your cooling system then you may have a defective gauge if you are getting heat through your heater. Usually I would say you have a coolant flow problem with either a stuck thermostat or a bad water pump but if you have heat from your heater, then you must have circulating coolant in your system. I would check the gauge or the sensor.

How do you know if a Pontiac Solstice is overheating?

You can tell if a Pontiac Solstice is overheating by checking the temperature gauge on the dashboard; if the needle moves into the red zone, it's a sign of overheating. Additionally, you might notice steam coming from the engine bay or a burning smell, which indicates excessive heat. Warning lights may also illuminate on the dashboard, signaling a temperature problem. If any of these signs occur, it's important to pull over safely and check the coolant levels and engine condition.
