Hi Annie
thanks for your reply, yes i think that is it, water in the oil, the oil has been going very quickly too, but i just put this down to my job, i'm on the road 24-7.
a friend of mine who is a mechanic, is now dealing with the problem, i hope he can save my car, he too thinks its the head gasket.
many thanks
Angie
