LAND-ROVER-PIMP:
I WILL KEEP A LONG STORY SHORT, MY 1998 DISCO 300 TDI HAD THE HEAD GASKET DONE IN NOV 2005, A YEAR LATER IT POPPED AGAIN SO I DID THE REPAIR MYSELF THINKING THE GARAGE HAD BODGED IT, IT WAS SKIMMED VALVES RE-SEATED AND PRESSURE TESTED........

3 MONTHS LATER GUESS WHAT!!!! IT'S STEAMIN FROM THE EXHAUST, HEATERS BLOWIN HOT AND COLD, PRESSURISING THE COOLING SYSTEM AND ALL THIS INTERMITTENTLY.. SO IVE JUST CHANGED THE HEAD GASKET YET AGAIN, AND ITS STILL THE SAME!!

IS MY CYLINDER HEAD CRACKED??? IF SO WHY DID IT PASS THE PRESSURE TEST ONLY 3 MONTHS AGO??  :?

PLEASE HELP AS MY GIRLFRIENDS USING MY 110.  Thanks all.   :(

head gasket aint got anything to do with MOT - so YES it will pass the MOT..cheack the block as this may have cracked..also did you change the bolts - or reuse??

burgerman:
