Either you have a small leak that only leaks under pressure, or you are burning it. Let your car wrm up and watch for leaks anywhere as it idles.

is your temp gauges going to hot as well? if so you might need a new thermostat, it actually can be a lot of things, wen i had my RS it did that but then i had to change my radiator caps, could be a lot of things....

You might want to also take a look at your waterpump.

I'm experiencing the same problem right now. 3 things I'm pointing at. 1. Thermostat 2. Radiator Cap 3. The Radiator itself.

After driving on the freeway for about 10 minutes today, my car's temp started heading toward the H. I quickly got off the freeway and stopped at a parking lot of a mall. I saw smoke coming from underneath the right side of my hood. I lifted up the hood and saw that coolant had sprayed everywhere and my coolant inside the bottle was boiling. You can actually hear and see the coolant boiling. Any of you have had this kind of experience?

i've already experienced this...........drive your car, let it sit for a while, and look to see if there is any coolant on your splash guard or on the ground. If this is the case, then you have a cracked radiator which is very common on integras.
