was driving about 60mph and the management light came on and the car strugling to pull afterward. stop the car, pop the bonnet and all i can see was cooling fluids beside the cylinder head. What is this mean, my Head Gasket is gone? How can that be when i just had the cylinder head and the gasket replaced. any help would be much appreciated. Oh its on a Xsara VTS by the way. [xx(][:(!]

Did whoever replaced the head and gasket torque it down correctly? Looks like you might have to go back and ask a few questions.

just had a proper look at the engine bay, the cooling fluids only leaking on the right hand side of the engine just below where the thermostate located. If the HGasket went, how come i dont see any oil inside the radiator?? could this be something else?? please help!!
