What engine gearbox is it? I'd start by looking around for any coolant leaks, jack the car up, have a look underneath. Is coolant coming out of the pressure cap?

 Is it actually getting hot, or just the gauge saying it is?

If you update your profile with your location, you might find a local member who'll be able to help.

 Gear issue might be separate, might be related - manual or auto?
