mine used to do it for years it but it stopped eventually. i didnt have to change anything. all i did was use some injector cleaner, the type you put in the fuel with every fill up and it cleared up

try this

Have you damaged your radiator ? or have had low coolant level. I have had this problem especially at low speeds, my problem was that very little or no engine coolant was in the system, i have a 1.8i 16v Zetec Millenium.

Hope this helps
