Best Answer

when it happened to mine 2 certified mechanics said it was a blown head gasket. it certainly wasnt the radiator, fans, thermostat, and the water pump wasnt able to be tested the mechanics said without replacing it and trying it out. So they deduced it to be the head gasket. Since we don't want to sink anymore money into it we are going to try Nanotechnology head gasket repair fluid which is a combination of aluminum and copper in tiny particles. We are going to cross our fingers.
