Hi there
My Hyundai i30 petrol estate has been impeccably maintained and done 140K miles. The local mechanic says the cylinder head gasket has gone and this is not worth repairing as would cost in region of 1.6k, and that they couldn't repair it anyway due to the timing chain. Previously it was struggling at 30mph and the engine light flickering on and off- they replaced spark plug but the issue returned and the temperature went way up too as we drove it to the garage. It does have dings and scratches but has never given me any trouble at all. I was really hoping for more that 140...just bad luck? Second opinion? Thanks in advance for any advice!
