I also had the headgasket replaced on my 9000 CSE LPT at around 60k, it solved a multitude of poor running problems and the car has been perfect ever since. There has been some quality problems with head gaskets on those models. However, I replaced the headgasket in time instead of waiting for a total breakdown, hence no skimming of the cylinder head was required in my case. > P.S. Otherwise the car is very smooth and is really going very well! Sounds OK. Johannes
