What trim level is your car? Its important to know to find out which stock radiator your have cooling your B20vtec.

Have you checked your coolant level?

- Thu Mar 05, 2009 5:45 pm #100870 Flush the coolant, then bleed it correctly. YOu have already changed the thermostate so that takes care of that. Check the hoses. If it still happens after all of that, your head gasket is bad.

You may be losing coolant slowly. A leak in the system or cap, or being forced out by air leaking in from a leaky headgasket.
