So i am going to replace all of the exhaust side of the guides the inlet side are fine

Next it is a case of dropping the head off at the local engine machining shops

Possible Head Gasket Gone

Hi All

I been noticing some problem with the car over the last 2 weeks

when i got the car i changed the cat due to is not revving above 4k and it was blocking the exhaust
and i also done an oil and filter change and a full coolant flush

over the last week it has used all of the oil (no level on the dip stick) i had to fill it back up 3.5 litres

and my coolant was a nice blue color and it is now starting the change dark and it has lost a small about of its level

when running the car there is no performance issues or puffs of smoke
the car start from cold and hot fine with no smoke on tick over

personally i am think my head gasket is going and i might have to get my spanners out what do people think
