Default small problem

i have an 2000 camaro a4. A problem im having is that once in awhile after driving I can hear air bubbles in the radiator, but the gauge doesn’t read hot as if its overheating. its not low on coolant and there is no leak around the radiator or the water pump. i added dye then pressurized the system, no leaks anywhere, no coolant in the oil. Another problem im having is that the ASR will turn off and trans slips like crazy and shifts hard as hell.
