Does the exhaust smell sweet -like ? Do you see steam after the warm-up period ? Its a Northstar engine ? That stuff doesn't just dissapear .. there something loosing it... How do you know theres no head issues ? Head gasket leaking into a cylinder, they are famous of that kinda stuff ...
Hi,
I too think that replacing the head gasket would take care of these issues.
One possible theory why it overheated is that cylinders push pressure out to the coolant system, making bubbles all over, and pushing coolant in the "wrong" direction too.
my guess is the coolant is going out the tailpipe, either an intake or a head gasket leak, pull the spark plugs any light color ones indicate coolant getting into the combustion chamber
mark 3 and 4 golfs loose water from nearside front bottom corner ov radiator ,does your heater work ok ? these cars also have water pump problems,if this is the case it pushes the water out the header tank and you wont find a leak.
