Yeah, first thing I would check is the head gasket.

I think it is the head gasket. Its been decked before. Would you just change the head gasket? this is the 2nd time its happened.

Is it a stock engine? Do you have Turbo?

I'm kinda going thru the same thing right now.

I never had coolant pushed OUT the bottle, but it's being pushed into the bottle. Replaced the HG last year - still leaking.

This year, I pulled the head and cylinders, head was warped and had it decked. Cylinders were fine. Still leaking.

So, I'm not sure what to try next. Someone suggested the radiator cap - may try that...

You may want to run a leak-down test to see if your leaking into the cooling system, that may give you a clue...

Check your radiator cap first.
