Just giving her a look over today and noticed that my expansion tank was full of yellowy/light brown slim. So I then took a few coolant hoses off and they to were coated in this slim. At the same time as doing this I noticed it also has an oil leak down the left hand side of the engine from some where underneath the manifolds as it is dripping every few seconds at idle from the bottom of the alternator. I checked the oil level and it is just above max.
I would not of known that anything was wrong without me finding these faults as she is driving great, doesnt over heat and is good on fuel. She has 167k lots of history and one owner before me and before got her last week she had been dry stored for nearly 6 years.
If it is the head gasket how much does it usually cost to get the job done?
Many thanks
