Coolant dissapears

2011 Skoda Superb 1.9 TDI
Car: Skoda Superb
Year: 2011
Variant: 1.9 TDI
Categories: Engine & Drivetrain
Had to top up the coolant on my Superb weekly for the past few months. Had it pressure tested at Skoda Dartford no problems, where is the coolant going? Car now chucking out white smoke - might be a head gasket due to coolant leaking. Car has only covered 60K from new - had regular service etc. not impressed. Anyone know any dealers around the Medway area in kent that will replace the head gasket at a reasonable price.

Carry out a block test and this will confirm or not whether head gasket gone . Sorry cant help you with a garage to repair in that area .

Just to add , you can get white smoke with unburnt fuel also , but with coolant loss , more likely to be head gasket .
