Sounds like either a bad head gasket, cracked head, or block. Also you may want to go to a shop and have them check the transmission and radiator coolant lines. You could have trans fluid getting into your coolant.
The cooling system has to be bleed of air.To do this locate the bleeder on the coolant inlet on engine. Remove the bleeder and the radiator cap, fill with coolant until there are no more air bubbles coming out of bleeder. Top off resivor close bleeder replace cap. Start and let it get to normal operating temp, If all is good now you are finished. If it still overheats let it cool off until there is no pressure on upper hose .Carefully remove cap and repeat bleeding process
Sounds like you are having a problem with your radiator not holding the pressure that it needs to so it overheats. I would say give your cooling system a thorough cleaning, if that doesnt solve it then a new radiator is in store.
use 50/50 mixture of coolant/water, use synthetic oil or no more than 5w 30. Change thermostat, make sure fans come on when idleing, otherwise change relay
Here is a shot in the dark, without knowing year , size engine, or transmission. But it sounds like you may have transmission fluid in the cooling system, If so the transmission cooler in the radiator may be bad. Just a thought.
