The next day, It overheats just driving down the street. Same thing today. The hose coming from engine into radiator is boiling hot, the one leaving into the engine/thermostat, is cold as ice. Could that mean my water pump isn't pumping water at all? could the shaft in there be broken possibly? I've replaced my thermostat so I don't believe that would be it.
Lots of overheating issues lately.. must be summer

Could a number of things from post #2. Even just a blockage inside the rubber tubes can cause it. Start narrowing down the parts listed. Specifically:

- water pump
- all tubes/lines
- recheck thermostat
- fans
- fuses
- seals
- radiator cap
etc.

What sucks is that auto shops somehow can never replicate a problem when you take your car to them. Happened to me a few times with my brakes, which I ended up fixing myself (after paying them $800 for almost a brand new front brake system).

Good luck.
