My car is majorly overheating it will go for 0 - 110 in about 15 minutes... Which is really bad... I have noticed there is oil dripping out the bottom and under teh oil cap is a very very very thin layer of mayonaisey stuff. Could these all be linked? Does it need a new Head gasket.. How hard is it to replace the head gasket?

uhoooh thats a definite head gasket.. it can be done relatively easily if you are quite mechanically minded/have experience with working on cars if not its a £400 garage job

yeah head needs fixing, BUT i found if you drain the system replace the fan switch and thermostat and give her a good flushing out, it will sort the over heating out, BUT THIS IS SHORT TERM FIX
