a head gasket!
well, at least everything's been ok so far...
i called out the AA man after some serious overheating, he diagnosed head gasket.
so i booked it into a local garage to get repaired, but they checked the car over first and didn't think it was head gasket. they found a leak in the radiator and the fan switch for the cooling fan was dodgy.
so they replaced those last week and it's been running at normal temperature so far...
so just a tale of hope for those who fear head gasket problems!
it was still the best part of £200 to fix, but that's less than half what the head gasket would have been!
