My gauge needle for the temperature is running 3/4. Is this normal or is the car overheating. It doesnt go any higher, it just stays at 3/4.

3/4ths isnt overheating, you are running hot but overheating would be the condition where your all the way up

Hey I had that problem and it ended up being the water pump. But by changing ther water pump they had to change my Timing belt. Not to pricy fix.
