sounds like a bad water pump. thats what i have right now but i cant afford to fix. the leak isnt bad so i just keep adding coolent. you should get it that checked. also, is there a ringing sound that is noticeable above 2500 rpms? the hotter the eingine the quicker the oil burns off, so when you were driving it really hot for 25miles it probibly burned quite q bit of oil so check that too. make sure if you get it replaced or do it your self to put on a new timing belt too
