i was driving this morning and my temp gauge reached hot. i let it cool down and added water to my radiator which it sucked it right up, but i looked underneath and no leak, while driving the car was fine and no smoke or bubbling was noises were made. the car did not jerk in anyway but not sure why my gauge moved to hot. what could it be? there is no leak like i said and the car continued to run just fine.

if the engine coolant was low than that's why it overheated
