Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Sounds like a blown head gasket problem. May have occured on early build 99's but I haven't heard much about it lately. I've had an oil leak problem and a coolant overflow problem (both fixed under TSBs) but no problems with antifreeze in my oil. Karl
