it could be the thermostat...could be the head gasket. you can check the both of those and maybe and hopefully all you need to do is replace either of those. happened to mine and it was the head gasket. check to see if the head is warped too if it comes to that. another thing that can be wrong is the water pump....so thats all i know

or your radiator could be bad now, but it could be a matter of any problems, as one has stated already.. could be the water pump, head gasket(check for water in the oil), thermostat, or as I stated the radiator.. my car overheated for a while, and I changed the thermostat and all.. it ended up being my radiator.. take your thermostat and put it in some boiling water and see if it opens or not.. if it doesn't it's bad...
