anyone know what caused this? its not leaking right now. i got an appt with the dealer in a few days for a coolant flush. also it was around 35 degrees c if that matters. never had this issue in hotter weather before either..
maybe it was an emergency valve discharging incase of too much pressure??

Quite a few of us have just gone through this. Your water pump is out...or going out. Plan on replacing your water pump and thermostat at the same time. Mileage?
