Hi guys,
So it turns out my ovewrheating issues were in fact a blown gasket as well as a cracked head.
I have just purchased a new head along with replacing the radiator, water pump, thermostat full gasket kit etc.
My concern is that the heater has never worked in the car (I only had it 3 weeks before the head blew) and that this could be the underlying issue.
Any advice on why my heaters wouldn't be working and if this could be a contributing factor in the head cracking. Don't really want to spend all of this time and money to have the same thing happen again.
Cheers
