Didn't want to take over inaredstripe's thread.
Interested to hear what people think about this one.
Got new car begining of April, it was held up for two weeks because of a recall so I got a hire car for that period.
Was told the recall was something to do with coolent.
A couple of weeks ago my heater stopped working, good ol' pa suggested I check my water level. It was pretty much empty. Got it checked out the next day, they couldn't find any leaks so couldn't diagnose a problem.
A few days later I was still a bit unhappy and spoke to the garage I bought it from who said they would like to see it. Managed to get it to them on 10th May.
10 mins in garage they said I have a water pressure problem. Sorted me out a hire car.
Went to pick it up on Friday it still wasn't ready, asked what the problem was. Head Gasket! Won't be ready till Monday just keep hire car.
They also told me that was what the original recall was for so what went wrong when Vauxhall checked it the first time in the recall?
They have said mine if the first one in that has supposedly already been checked for the fault.
I'm back in my car now but worried about problems which might occur down the line.
Sorry if this is a bit long winded but can anyone put my mind at rest.
