I had the smallest leak you could imagine on my header tank causing my car to o/heat... make sure the car is bled completely as this can cause problems as well...

my car dose not over heat (sorry) nbut the header tank leeks from around the top (boiles over) and from the bottom rear hose . any thoughts please it is getting nippy
exactly the same as mine, i never had the car overheat completely just some fluid out of the expansion, you will find that it is because the pipe is leaking that it is boiling over, as i said.. i had exactly the same symptoms as you, once i had located the very small leak and bled the system it was fine...
Oh yeah, over filling the header tank causes boiling as well....
