Hi all. I'd really appreciate your insight with an issue that I am facing. Fiat 500 2016 1.2 Lounge 39k miles Automatic. I was driving, and got the alert indicating that car was overheating. I immediately stopped and topped up with water. Then saw this liquid leak onto ground on left passenger side (please see picture attached) and the engine area smoked. There was also an ethanol-like smell. I have taken it to a garage and they're saying that the head gasket needs to be repaired - how can this happen at 39k miles
Does it seem that it is truly a head gasket problem or is the garage inflating a problem? I have only had the car for a year and driven it 2k miles.
