Default HELP! coolant pissing out of me car, but not all the time ?!?!?

Right, i feel like pushing me car off a cliff! '2003 Passat S (130)'
last month, the suspension spring snapped for no good reason, now it pissing coolant all over the floor.

if i leave the car standing and fill the coolant bottle up, its fine, i can leave it days, it stays full. ive left it running and no coolant comes out....... until it hits 90 degrees (normal running temperature) then it starts dripping out. i can drive it cold, it still doesnt piss out, not until it hits that magic 90 degreese mark.

ive stuck me head under, but i cant see anything cos it has plastic covers everywhere.

does anyone know what it sounds like, let me know what faulty bit im looking for and if a amature (me!) can fix it or is it a professional job?

cheers.
