| Problems: | The car bursted radiator 3 consecutive times. Recently a mechanic took out the thermostat and bled out air and there was no problem when we made a 100km road test. However a day later the temperature gauge was very high following a 2 hr drive within town. I have consulted 4 mechanics, the first one says the gasket needs to be replaced and the cylinder head will be polished; a second one says i might have to replace the cylinder head assy and gasket; the third says with 2 L enginees i need to replace the cylinder head assy and gasket; the fourth says the cylinder head might be schemed and i need to replace the gasket. Any professional suggestion on what i should do? |
