if this is a 3.1 engine! THEN I WENT THRU THE SAME THING, first off,flush cooling system. on mine there was a gasket leak on drivers side intake manifold.the dex-cool coolant that gm uses eats up gaskets, i just replaced my own gaskets and flushed out system, it is running very well at this time, and the coolant is clear! they have a better gasket for replcement. go to any parts place and get a haynes manual for your car, it is based on a complete teardown of car, only about 20.00. you can change the gasket yourself by following the instructions.if you are inclined to do so!! GOOD-LUCK

It could be a couple of things. The coolant system could be over full. There could be a clog in the radiator.
