Vast ways to overheat. do you want a list?
got signs.? just the gauge or got steam... do TELL?
if it really overheated, did the fans come on.
did you read all the diagnostic steps on the FSM? (alldata.com)
or at suzuki pit stop plus for 4 bucks?
have you, tried to replace anything yet>?
do you want to guess or TEST.
one way is long and expensive , other is save money
your call,
most DYI , do the never done full cooling service, now.
full flush and new thermostat.
6 year old thermostat are kind , END of LIFE now.
signs:
(rad id full of 50% antifreeze, look in rad not the overflow tank) COLD.
1: belt slips? to pump? makes noise or just slips?
2: fans never come on.
3: engine pings. (knocks or detonates)
4: steam or water spouting from RAD or side tank?
5: water in engine oil? or a/t trans? (dip stick end looks milky)
6: carbon dust in the AF , when looking on dead cold , rad cap off neck hole..
7: guage lies, or surges. gauges do lie, or air in the block below STAT makes this happen, no sender or STAT can work in AIR POCKET.
none. so did you really check the level cold at RAD cap off?
8: lost engine power?
9: try a new RAD cap yet, for 5bucks. (if the GASKET IS OK, IT'S OK)
10: if all the above works, Use any IR pyro heat gun meter, to see
if all rad tubes, (hot) read the same, top and bottom
if side flow rad? left and right,. each tube starts at about 180F
and drops by up to 50F degrees. to 130F at the other end of tube
if one tube is same temp end to end,it's clogged,
if all that pans out. the pump is bad.

Power steering light?? Maybe it's something else.
SOURCE: Where is the transmission range sensor for 2006
Right on the transmission, to the right side of the engine bay as you are looking down on it. It is a black plastic part that is bolted on the transmission with two 10mm bolts, and connected to the transmission with rod and clip. It is partially obstructed by the radiator hose, but otherwise really easy to get to.

SOURCE: replace front wheel bearing 2006 suzuki forenza
Very easy. Pull the wheel off after lifting the car on the side you're fixing. ;) Then pull the big center nut off the spindle. It's got a safety smash down you will have to lift up that's in a grove on the shaft. You will see this once the wheel is removed. Unbolt that big nut then pull off the brake rotor. The bearings are in the brake rotor and the shaft the rotor was sitting on. Change them both and be back on your way. It's a 20 min job at most for a beginner.
