    If the thermostat isn't opening, then I would expect the car to overheat in minutes (unless it's very cold outside). Check to see if your fans are running; one should be running continuously and the other when the engine heats-up.

    Better hope it's a thermostat issue! Have the cooling system chemically tested for exhaust gases in the cooling system.
