check your dip stick...see if there's a milky brown color on it. If there is you have a blown head gasket.

i had the same problem. Its your headgasket. What is happening is that when u drive, you are pushing air threw the water journals and its pressurizing your radiator and your radiator forces all your water to your overflow bottle and when your overflow bottle fulls up you lose water everywhere. bad headgastket
