does the fans come on when it's over heating ? if not and you replaced the thermostat replace the fan switch.

does the car overheat, then as you increase engine speed it levels back out? because that is looking like a headgasket problem.

the reason your d4 light is blinking is most likely because of the engine heat beating the hell out of the tranny. dont drive till fixed i say

Right.... tryin not to drive it, trust me.... When i said i had it on, i meant i just let the car run after i tryin to fix it or whatever and just to see the problem first hand... but
Next question...
The Thermostat... How hard is it to change... Because i casually walked outside and was about to get to work... but the nuts are TIGHT AS HELLL... i cant get it to budege... can i really just take a wrench and ge tit off?
