Just a side note, my water temperature is anywhere between 80-90 degrees celcius during normal driving conditions. I only go above 100 celcius (boiling point) on track/spirited runs. Also, i had a friend who had his coolant boil due to a blown headgasket.

If this is what you have happening then it is the HG.

Doesn't that sound like EXACTLY like what barney was saying? Might want to check your head gasket...but after 5k mi? Man, I'd be pissed off.
