I was just reading some info on the SOGI tech pages and it looks like I MAY have a BHG. Every time my car gets hot for a while my overflow bottle fills up and the radiator doesn't have much left in it. GAAA!! oh no

Well...with 173k on it I really can't complain to much. I guess I'll try to re-torque the HG. well...time for that turbo...hehe

May be a little too late for retorquing. Coolant in the cylinders is not a good thing. Get it fixed ASAP.

Just replace the gasket the are not very expensive or just go with a better aftermaket one.

yeah if u DIY than it won't cost that much, jes alot of work, go with after market head gasket, better quality and more durable to top, a good one will cost 100+ USD, u have to have the head and block machined more than likely that will cost too. don't knoe how much but not that bad figuring its a type of overhaul
