It looks like I have blown a head gasket.
Its not critical at the moment but I am getting oil in the coolant and losing coolant slowly.
Its a full engine out job to fix
Sorry to hear Pete,
How many kms has your car done?
Any initial thoughts on the reasons behind this?
125,000kms
Mick says that there are a few ways it can happen.
One way is turning the car off when its too hot.
Maybe i didn't let it cool down long enough after the track day I did a few months ago.

So sorry to hear that peter!
I cant believe it costs that much to repair!
I know you probably dont want to think about it now but you should look at the bright side of having the engine out and consider any mods you might want to do while youre at it. Cams maybe?

My front rotors were warped and were pissing me off for ages.
The new brakes feel so much better and produce less brake dust.

I used Ding King after a referral from "peadya100" (http://www.dingking.com.au)
It took him 3 hours and he only charged me $250 which is a bargain.
Really happy with the results too.
