On my 2006 XJ8 VP one of the ears inside the thermostat housing broke off allowing thermostat parts to fall into neck of crossover restricting water circulation. The radiator cap did not relive pressure (when I tested it relived at 35 psi) extra pressure spilt (fiber ) crossover pipe replaced as an assemble and New radiator cap 10K miles ago March of this year. Works like new
I was able to see water spray when I used a radiator pressure tester Just don't exceed 15 PSI
Good luck

When you are in overheating mode turning on the heat high can help lower the engine temp in an "emergency". Not at all good to be running the engine when temp is high. Also the idiot gauge registers high long after the fact.
