My original question is where should I order my head gasket from. Do Volvo still stock this part, I assume the Volvo one will be better than any aftermarket one?
Edited to say the head gasket first got weepy as far back as 2015 some 60 thou miles ago, I have driven like this since then, my current garage and my previous Volvo indi would have made me have it done if it needed it urgently. There is no oil in the coolant and there is no coolant in the oil. I have lost some horses. The coolant loss did increase recently but maybe that was the water pump and the header tank leaks. It is not a case of not wanting to get the car fixed, it is juggling car repairs and annual leave with a long distance job which I cannot get to without the car. Public transport is not really doable, particularly in the winter, I am not left enough hours to eat and sleep if I use public transport.
