I have a 99 with 87k. Warranty covered mine so they didn't quote the cost, but it's my understanding that it is in the $1k zone. This is at a dealer in Falls Church, Va. I actually wasn't aware that I had a head gasket problem per se, just that I had an occasional "check engine" light flicker and some noise I assumed was from the exhaust. (The exhaust noise may have hidden it somewhat, as I needed a center muffler.) Car's fine now, but I've put 160 miles on it since and I still have only mid-yellow turbo boost. My guess is that they reset everyhing to spec, since it did the same thing when I bought it and everything was set to spec. I'm sure a slight advance will do the trick as it did before. For what it's worth, I had a 97 900set and put 225k on it with no head gasket problems. Did this help?
