Well my s2 avants gone in for a new head gasket / machining it level and water pump plus stem valves etc 1,250€ estimate hoping theres no crack in the head, waiting on the pressure test.
my problem started after a full service got smoke coming out of the exhaust plus the old coolant leak/loss went from slight to about a litre a mile
maybe coincidence im not sure, but it needs doing and my wallet is having a seizure too! i think by the time all this is sorted car will have been off the road for 5 weeks apart from the 2 days after the service i drove it
I have not used the same garage to do the Gasket (audi specialists) as the service (local spanish garage) as my trust in them is a little thin to say the least.
when i spoke to them about it they just shrugged and said head gaskets can go at any time and they dont know why it went.
