Its either a poorly bled coolant system, or a blown coolant seal. Lets hope its the first. Read the FAQ for a guide on bleeding the coolant system.

Make sure that you have the proper radiator cap pressure, 13 psi (.9 bar). Really, you should only have an OEM cap. Some vendors sell a higher pressure cap and it is generally accepted that the higher cap is not a good idea.
