I came home yesterday after driving just a mile down the road and it was sounding like it was boiling I didn't see any water coming out but there was no water in the reserve tank, either. the gage didn't lead me to believe it was hot at all. I was told it could be the head gasket? I wondered if it was just the thermostat stuck this is all new I had the water pump and the timing belt changed about 6 months ago. it is smoking a little now but its old and has been taken good care of I don't understand what it could be now I check the dip stick and there was no sign of water in the oil either. Its cleaned every 3000 miles so it is clean not black and it is on the full line not over or under the fill.
