its not actually that hard or wasnt on the saxo i did did it all on my drive pretty much and as said took the head to get skimmed and replaced the gasket wasnt much really
may attempt to find a decent car with a head gasket failure and do it again make some money from it or just run it once fixed can get some bargains cause garages charge a fortune to do it for some reason

#21: Re: 2.0 hdi oil leak Author: Abzynthe, Posted: Mon Apr 23, 2012 2:46 am ---- I did this on Saturday and its now fixed
Was a pain in the a**e though!
there's 8 torxs bolts, then you need to take out a sensor next to the cam belt, and also take off the cambelt cover as the rocker cover goes underneath the cam belt cover. I also had to unbolt the black metal thing that holds the engine cover in place to have enough room to lift the rocker cover. The pipes were really stiff aswell and had to come off. there's like two locator pins on the rocker cover that slots down into the rocker so you cant just slide it off, it has to come up and out.
