On vehicles equipped with a turbocharged engine, the cylinder head gasket does not provide adequate sealing. Repeated high-load driving can allow combustion gases to leak from the gasket into the coolant passage. In the worst case, coolant circulation is disrupted, leading to engine overheating.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, replace the cylinder head gasket with a corrected part.
