It seems there are alot of cars with this problem. I've changed the thermostat, checked gages, etc, but to no avail. The temp needle goes eratic, there is tons of antifreeze in the car, but one other thing about this problem and I know it's all linked in the heater/cooling system. The engine never heats up enough to get warm. The heater blows out mediocre warm air if the temp isn't too cold, but if it's really cold outside the heater doesn't work. Tried getting to the heater core and replacing that but couldn't get to the damn thing, we tore that dashboard apart, we finally blew out the core like they would a radiator, but the heater still doesn't work and as soon as it gets hot outside the car says it's overheating. Any suggestions?
