Gave the Cerbera a 60-70mile run on Saturday with no problems until I got back home. Parked car on drive opened garage door pulled car in garage, car decides to throw water out over garage floor!

I checked the water before I went out and added about a pint or 2. Temp was normal even on the drive at tick over fans cut in ok. It has done this once before about 8 months or so ago while I was stoped at the lights just let it cool filled it back up never done it again until now.
By the way the water comes out the expansion tank. When I topped the water up there was some gunk in the expansion tank stuck finger in did not seem oily at all, checked oil no water in oil so hopefully head gasket is ok.

My question is have any of you good folks had similar and if you have what was the cause and more importantly what did you do to fix it.

Many thanks in advance

Hi Paul

Sounds like simply an airlock to me.
This came up last week. Have a look here:
