could be head, u got mayonase on you oil cap? but i'd check all the hoses first, oh and when this happened to mine it was the hose under the coolant reservoir that goes into the engine itself is a pain to get to cost, £7.99 from vaux for the hose but u have take reservoir, the battery and allsorts out to get proper access to it, but its really easy to forget to check it cause its hidden away so make sure u do!
