It could very easily be the intake gasket. This is a common problem on almost all GM products made between the mid 1990's and 2004. The issue is that the gasket is made of cheap plastic and the constant warming and cooling of the engine causes it to crack. It can cost anywhere from $600.00 to $1200.00 to replace.

Where could antifreeze be going I am missing from the reserve?
My Chevy Syburban is consistently loosing antifreeze every couple of days. Put new water pump on, radiator hose still loosing antifreeze somewhere What coud be the problem I do not want to replace the head gasket or something else will cost over $1000 If a head gasket is blown, the vehicle will normally run rough, if at all, due to water vapor in the cylinder(s). If your windows are constantly fogged up, you probably have a faulty heater core which would deplete antifreeze. There might also be a leak in the radiator or transmission cooler. Or maybe just a faulty hose.

What if your 95 acura legend keeps overheating I changed the water pump thermostat radiator and the cap and holes and its still overheating after driving about 10 miles What is my problem?
My first thought is have you checked your fan? Some fans spin but not fast enough. Electric fans get weak and direct drive fans have a clutch that gets weak. Another issue is the air dam ( the piece of plastic under you car). Most cars are designed to push air through the radiator if the air dam is missing it might be a problem.
