Have you checked the coolant level in the coolant bottle yet?The low coolant level and temp light are the same light on that year. On that car the coolant temp sensors have high failure rate. Also corroded coil towers the radiators crack over time right bellow where the upper radiator hose goes onto it. The pressure regulators fail in the valve bodys in the transmissions on those cars also.
