have the thermostat checked, it could be stuck. Answer2 There is a number of reasons why. First though, you have to define the term "overheating". Is it the engine that gets hot or is just the gauge that is telling you so? And when does it overheat? Is it all the time or on certain instances, like when you turn on your defrost or heating or something like that? My '05 Cavalier had a big problem and I thought my engine was overheating. When I would turn on the defrost, the temperature in the gauge used to go up really really high and a smell like something was burning would appear. After going to a number of dealers and numerous attempts to fix the problem, we finally fixed it at a certain Chevi dealer in Glen Ellyn, IL. So I really do not know what to recommend because I do not know the reason why yours is overheating, but for me the problem was with the gauge. The engine was cool, and the gauge was reading the temperature incorrectly. They also told me that the smell came from a shopping bag that somehow was stuck at the car. I am sorry I cannot be of more help. Hope you find a solution.
