It sounds more like an electrical issue than genuine over heating? How hot is the engine when you get the overheat warning? Water blowing out of the header tank? So after you get the over heat message everything is normal again?

Another possibility is an airlock in the system?
Often a reason for a false overheating message - but this is just a general suggestion, because I'm not familiar with the 1.9 engine.
Worth checking and following the bleed procedure I would think.
