Default Engine overheating Jaguar XF 2009 V8-4.2

good morning friends I need help to solve the problem of overheating in my car. As an interesting fact, when I barely go 1 mile, the engine overheating sign appears, and the cooling water from the auxiliary tank increases the volume, when you stop the car and turn it off, the auxiliary tank remains almost empty. what can it be?

Did you run the car while it was overheating?
That's the number one cause of engine failure.

Go to the auto parts, rent for free the kit to test the coolant for exhaust gases, that will tell you if you have a head gasket leak.

I had my fan die before, my wife had the plastic thermostat housing start leaking, as soon as your car overheats, you have to stop driving it. Both are 09 4.2 engines one supercharged. You don't want a blown head gasket.
