Hello everyone im new to PNG. I've always liked novas since my school days and at the moment drive a brown A reg redtop 3 door hatchback. 3 weeks ago the heater matrix blew when i was on the motorway, i put this down to the car still having the original one and that it was old. I had another one at home and fitted that but that one blew at the weekend on the motorway and i got wet feet again:( My mate at work said the head gasket could have gone and that the system was pressurising and blowing the weakest part. I had it tested yesterday at the garage and was told the head gasket was fine. I dont know what to do as i use the car every day and its going to start getting cold and i dont have a heater. I was worried if i buy a new matrix it will blow again and there like £60 or so. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated!:)
