Title: pressuring up..help needed!!
Post by: matt76 on 29 January 2011, 17:47:10

Hi
I bought a 2.2 cdx auto estate with a suspected blown head gasket but im not convinced it has gone.
Whilst driving at high speeds it pressures up but the coolant in the header tank isnt getting warm so took out thermostat to check and have flushed the radiator out...Done pressure check on the head today and seems to be ok..Could it be the headgasket or waterpump??? Any advice would be gratefully recieved...Cheers Matt
