Radiator end tank exploded about 2 months ago and it overheated. It then blew the head gasket a month after that, likely cause by the radiator failure. Yanked it all apart in one weekend, putting it back together this weekend. All new top end gaskets. For 230k miles the inside of this engine is spotless.

Except O'Reilly gave us a head bolt kit that only had 7 out of 10 bolts...

Oh yeah, it's a fantastic little car. Driving it around almost makes me want one, although I have no need of another AWD compact suv.
