if the temp gauge goes all teh way to hot then you might try a flush. there are coolant additives to add to the radiator and make it run cooler. Check to see if the fan is working when the a/c is on as it should be. if it's not then check the fuse and relay to see if it's good or not. then go through your other coolant system checks.
