Is it leaking antifreeze underneath the engine at all when it sits overnight? If so I would say the water pump is shot. If it isn't leaking, it could still be the water pump but it might(hopefully) just need a new thermostat. And driving it when it's hot like that to the point where it starts to run rough means you run it too much like that and your engine will blow up and there is probably already damage. So check it out before driving it to much more.
Sounds like you have a faulty head gasket or maybe a cracked head.This can cause overheating and the check engine light to come on.The code for the o2 sensor is probably caused by coolant getting into the exhaust system and coating the sensor.The coolant fan may work but it cannot remove enough heat from the rad to make the engine cool off.Try some engine coolant stop leak to see if it will help.This maybe only a temperary fix.Let me know if you need more.MOE
its either of the 3 ur water pump is weak and couldnt supply the right amount of coolant to ur engine / ur radiator is clogged or your thermostatic valve is stuck up that restrict full flow of fluid to the radiator thats why when u use the heater that uses ur coolant hot water as a heating unit the temp. goes down...
no, and oil change will not stop the car from getting hot,,, check to see if your cooling fans are coming on, if not, check fuses and relays, check coolant level
Is your cooling fan kicking on when temp rises?Are you running antifreeze or just water?Possible calcium buildup in radiator or water pump not working at full potential.. I could be more helpful if more detail info was given....
I STARTED OVERHEATING AND THE HEAT STOPPED WORKING
