Try doing it after you've driven for 100 miles.

Legal bit:
ONLY JOKING!!!!! NEVER OPEN THE RADIATOR CAP WHEN THE ENGINE IS HOT, IT WILL SPRAY YOU WITH BOILING WATER!

I HAVE !!! I DONT SPRAY OUT! NOT EVEN HISS AT ME!

check inside the cap and make sure the ruber seal/ring in the middle part is sitting in its ridge and most tdi's won't make a lot of pressure anyway unless there a fault
