2003 Chevrolet Malibu OVERHEATING for 4 months. The low coolant light comes on, the gauge needle climbs, I lose heat. When cool I add 3 quarts. No water in the oil, no white smoke exhaust. I've backflushed, bled for air, replaced the cap. Nothing's worked. Now what?

What is your question?
When I shut off the engine I hear the thumping noise of water boiling.
Sometimes when I add water to a warm running engine it comes right out of the overflow tube.
