My Car is doing the EXACT same thing, and its NOT the heads. I even bought a new cap... we pressure tested it, it was no good.... bought a new Thermostat, that ALSO was no good (the new parts). My dad was telling me that he heard that with Toyotas there is something about having to purchase an ACTUAL Toyota radiator cap.

If you ever figured out the problem I'd like to know what it was. If not, pressure check your cap biggrin.gif
