garage said my head gasket needs changing due to oil leak, i could still drive my car around for couple of months...and they quoted £400!! I dont think its a major oil leak as otherwise i wouldve had to refil my oil on a regular basis. I just noticed a small patch of oil where my car was parked right at the front. And for the last month i havent been driving the car and i noticed a yellow stain round the exhaust pipe..whats that??
A friend of mine said my oil leak is easy to fix, a local garage will put something that looks like a paper round the gasket to stop any leak...i dont know if this is called a sump gasket...
any advise
