it you get to much coolant in, the extra one will go off because of the heat
could be even the thermostat , not sure good luck and the dealer will fix that (I'm thinking that all the time it was to much coolant inside) ,---
when you park the car , some of the heat still comes out ,
it sounds like its boilling right? (after you turn of the engine)
