Hello all

Thanks
Ralph

 

Waqsn't done right or your mechanic missed something while in the engine, like warpped heads, a crack in a head or the block.

if it was a cracked head or block....which he checked for and said everything was OK.....heads were machined.....why did it take 10 days for something to show up???? durint that 10 days everything was good??

Sorry to hear of your trouble,thats a real bummer.I'm reading a lot about the head gasket issue in the Discovery,what is the main cause?overheating? or is it just the nature of the beast.I'm interested to hear more about it.Is there a line of defence?
