I have a 2004 Pontiac Sunfire. When the car is in idle the air blows out hot and the Temperature gage rises and the car over heats. The car is moving the air blows out ice cold and the temperature gage goes to normal.
Can someone please tell me what's wrong?

If its the AC you're referring to: could be air and moisture forming into ice and blocking off the orifice tube-try evacuating it.

Overheating-check if both fans are running when AC is On. Also check the thermostat
