If the car is overheating take it to a heating and cooling automotive service center. It may be that your thermostat is bad, and needs to be replaced. Also they will check your hoses and make certain they are working properly. In addition, the repair shop will check your radiator for leaks, or to ensure there is enough coolant.

Overheating can be the result of your car needing a coolant flush, a faulty thermostat, a bad water pump, or a bad radiator. I would address the each of these issues in that order because they are listed from easiest (cheapest) to most involved (expensive).

If it has DexCool (orange coolant) and you haven't had it flushed at least every other year and it overheats at idle, chances are that you will have to replace everything, including your radiator. (white film on everything)

Make sure you have coolant in your system if this is not the problem check your thermostat they are not very expensive to replace this may work.

Do a check of all cooling components. Make sure the fan and thermostat work properly. Try flushing the coolant system making sure to bleed all air out.

Well first I would try to check the themisat and if that is not the problem then check out your water pump because they like to go out alot in older cars.
