Headgasket - how easy is the job?
#9
Oh back down to like 18psi, not much its detuned/eco mode, but my point is that even after such a savage lifting of the head, dropping the boost has made it reliable again (in a sense) that its not needed any water for weeks...

If this has happened though, do replace the gasket! because as a daily you cant really risk it. You generally get quite alot of lee-way time with the XUD, they dont normally just die completely into an un-drivable state overnight, you would notice issues before this happens such as that photo hehe they will plod on for weeks providing there is water in the tank, and it has oil in it - just keep the boost down like I have.
