From what you’ve described, this is due to a stuck thermostat most likely. This is why the radiator is not getting a warm flow of coolant.
I’d suggest having this looked at by a certified technician, like one from YourMechanic. One of our mobile experts will be able to diagnose the sounds and overheating symptoms.
