Possible blown head gasket or a cracked cylinder head. Run the engine with cap removed, if bubbles or oil is seen in the water one of the above has failed.

Phillip See my thread "Diesel turbo not firing-not even trying ". I experienced similar pressure build up in the coolant system in my car recently. Hope it helps
