DB Head gasket problems aren't always dramatic at first. A small problem can gradually develop until the vehicle begins overheating or running badly. Here are ten signs worth acting on.
- Engine overheating
- Coolant keeps disappearing with no visible leak
- Persistent white exhaust smoke once warm
- Milky or creamy engine oil
- Loss of power
- Engine misfires or rough running
- Abnormal cooling-system pressure
- Bubbling in the coolant expansion tank
- A sweet smell from the exhaust
- The temperature gauge running unusually high
