Hello All,
Just wanted to give you an update to an earlier post that I had applied about a coolant leak, engine oveheating.
I topped up the antifreeze and drove it about 600Km with no engine problems. Isling properly the whole nine yards. took it into my mechanic and found the leak in the front cover.
Had him replace the front cover,serpintine belt,air filter , complet oil change and replaced the fuel filter. So far no leak, no smell and I have almost 400KM on it. He had mentioned that the new gaskets where the larger one, which meant I should get longer life out of them.
So the good news, no head gasket leak, and everything seems fine.
Hope everyone elso out there has the same luck!!
