Got my 900SE Conv. back from its service today having had everything that they said needed to be done except one. They had said the head gasket was leaking slighly, and that it would require to be booked in again to replace it at £500 ish + VAT I didn't have this done (as the service and mot was already costing £1000+) so they advised that i should just watch the coolant level for a while and see it is used up any more than normal. I said that i would return in 1000-2000 miles to see if it had got any worse? Could someone explain what the head gasket does and if a leak is serious ? Any other advice would be welcome. Thanks Abbas
