    Hello! I can think of two things right off that could cause this, radiator cap failure and a leaking head gasket. Have the cap and neck tested for correct seal, pressure, and operation, and the cylinders pressure tested. This will tell. Of course, without having the car here, I can't say for sure. Good luck...

    Same problem, 99 intrigue, all new cooling system parts, but car overheats. Right now I'm thinking the engine runs too hot, or coolant leaking into engine.
