Do you get any warning lights at the same time? SOunds like a short though, as I can't see the oil over heating and the rest of the motor not. MIne had the same trouble, but was cured with a new oil temp sensor.

Does the 'oil temp ' gauge go up gradually, or does it go right to red when you start the car? In either case, it could be a bad oil gauge in the I/P.
