Head gasket? Check the coolant level.

head gasket is a possibility as the exhaust gasses could be getting into the coolant system and heating up the coolant faster than it can cool down. this would cause the 100 degree temps. this could also cause an air lock in the matrix that would cause it to blow hot then cold.

a blockage in the matrix wouldnt cause high temps, but a blockage in the rad could.

Krammy, you know where i am if you want it sorting
