Default Over Heating Problem

I have a wierd problem ....

When I am in traffic or on the open road my temp is fine ... but then I go over 80 the engine temp goes up up up .... I slow down under 80 and temp goes back to normal .....

I have replaces the thermostat because I thought it may be going bad but it didnt fix the problem

any ideas?

thanks

Bump to get yours and mine problem solved..

Also if you turn the heat on it will fix the problem?

Just did:
- act clutch kit
- rear main seal
- thermostat
- fidanza flywheel
- complete head set
- flushed coolant

I'm thinking radiator because my fan comes on..

TTT for two people with the same problem
