Yes get the code if you can, that way we can help you out more. If you are overheating, let's get it fixed right away since you don't want to prolong overheating to your engine. Do you know how to check for the codes? If not, let us know.

Sounds serious, I wouldn't drive it 'till you get that one figured out. Is it leaking water anywhere? Be sure to look at the side of the oil pan under the belts. Timing could be way off. Head gasket could be fried. Or just a thermosat among other things...
