    This car died on motorway. Long term cust but new car,for son. (!)
    Oil has pumped into cooling system till it came out of expansion tank.
    It did actually
    Head is now off and gasket looks like it has failed on the o/s/f corner at the oil feed to head. Its gone very brittle and the metal insert fell out on dissasembly.
    Every pipe,expansion tank and rad is blocked solid with the brown guck. The water gallery round the liners is the same. I would assume the matrix has gone the same way.
    I can replace all the pipes and rad etc.
    There will still be guck even so.
    How would you guys deal with this one?
    Cheers,
    Tony
