09 Fwd 2.2 Transit gurgling noise

Postby Birmingham » Wed May 09, 2018 6:25 pm

Hi guys. Last week it first started, on a long run of say 20 mile+, when I pull up and turn the van off, I hear a gurgling water noise coming from the engine as i'm still sat in the cab, anybody have/had the same problem or any ideas what it could be ???? Any info would be appreciated, i'm starting to sh*t bricks as someone said its head gasket problems :(

My 08 mk7 has always done this too, and has done for the last 20,000 miles, I think its known as a "characteristic" mate as I read a few posts about people with same noises. :-)

Our work 125 has done the same for 80K, think it's just steam purging into the header.
