    @bisco thanks.....
    I am also have the cat heating up sometimes.
    Whenever I drive the car and parks it, th coolant overfill the reservoir at times...it heats up at times and I would have to park for few mins to top up coolant. What do you think could be the issues? I scanned but there was not fault code.

    You top up coolant with 50/50 coolant mix, not just water, correct?
