This should not happen, as it should come out of the overflow hose, which comes right off the line to the filler cap....

You might have a shagged radiator cap which is letting the water out before it should, first thing I'd check or replace..........Make sure it's not overheating too.

it is coming out of the overflow hose. but the hose goes no where and so coolant is running down to the ground, where should the overflow hose be?

Are you over-filling the expansion bottle by chance?

no, not overfilling. i think i may have a bubble somewhere in the coolant system. no pressure when i take the cap off.
