Sound like thermostat sticking close.replace thermostat and radiator pressure cap.if already done.you could have faulty water pump.if engine overheating at long slow traffic line or setting at a stand still.the engine cooling fans should be running, check and see if cooling fans running if not,check cooling fans fuses and relays.if all is good,hot wire make sure coolings fans okay.if all is good,code scan vechicle for faulty engine coolant temperature sensor and ecm problems.you need a code scanner where you can check live data check see if coolant temperature sensor reading correctly if engine coolant temperature is 190 degrees the coolant sensor. the scanner suppose to show 190 degrees in temperature if not it reads 80 or 90 degrees the engine coolant temperature sensor is faulty need replacing.if all is good check engine oil if look like milk shake blow head gasket will cause over heating.to be on the safe side i would replace thermostat and radiator pressure cap first.to make sure engine coolant circulating through radiator and engine block.

My 2002 leganza cdx is overheating,can,t find problem

Run you finger down the radiator fins and see if any fold easy or flake away as they corrode and don\'t loose heat efficiently. Have the radiator reversed flushed by a radiator specialist. Check thet the bottom radiator hose dosen\'t suck closed under revs from blocked radiator

you could have blown the manifold gasket, or the head gasket depending on what else its doing, you haven't said, its doubtful but possible that a freeze plug has gone bad, http://www.accessconnect.com/trailer_wiring_diagram.htm on that Link there are other things you may need to fix your problem,, Just click those links

My daewoo is leaking waterand overheating

Thanks for choosing FixYa and welcome. You need to find the leak. If it is coolant leaking, this is your problem. If it is inside the engine, it will be a hard fix. If not, check all the hoses. Check your level of coolant fluid. If it is a slow leak, might be able to add coolant so often to keep it cool. Make sure your fans and radiator are working. A sticking or bad thermostat is the most common issue for overheating, followed by the water pump, valve, and impeller. If it is a bad leak, it will cause overheating. If you are low on coolant, same thing. If you have a question, let me know.

Sounds like your heater core is shot. This is especially true if you're smelling anti-freeze.
