Sounds like you either have a ****ty FMIC, tired radiator, bad thermostat or not enough coolant. Could be the thermostat because of the temperature change.

Have you recently replaced your thermostat? It could be stuck

If your DSM is overheating, its not an airflow problem, its most likely a thermostat or heat gasket or waterpump.
