Keep in mind, our gauges are horrible!! Hook it up to a scanner and see what the REAL temperature is. Should match your thermostat rating. If it's within spec, and not really overheating, replace your temp sensor, located right above your thermostat. If it's truly overheating, make sure you have coolant, you may try to burp it, may have air in the system causing it to overheat.
