Dan Evans Posted July 13, 2010 Author Share Posted July 13, 2010 **Update**well after 683 miles I've now lost compression in 2 cylinders, i was so pissed off i thought about breaking/selling her and moving on with something else. However, i took the head of tonight to find this... After a long hard think about it and a long good stare at the car, I've decided to continue with her.She will be back soon.

Dan Evans Posted July 13, 2010 Author Share Posted July 13, 2010 it was a BGA standard head gasket, i was told by a few people on here 1.2 bar will be fine on a standard gasket....... WRONG!!!!im pretty sure its due to having too much boost going through it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
