You need to supply more and better information in order for anyone to attempt to help you. Describe all of the things that happened in order, from the very beginning of the problem. And also describe what else is happening now - OBD codes, rough running, white/blue smoke from the pipe, how much coolant is being lost, any visible leaks, and anything else that might be useful information.

THAT is a very common issue. check out the fan.


and check your Radiator Bottom Hose temperature. If bottom hose is cold, but car is overheating, Radiator can be clog.
