the unthinkable has happened to my 4.0 V6
...head gasket has sprung a leak it seems.
Tested at the radiator after I noticed the radiator filler bottle getting too full.
Vehicle's temp gauge never moved. New gasket is only R600 but I assume I should have the head checked and perhaps schimmed in any case. What about doing the ports, while the head is off?

Re: the unthinkable has happened to my 4.0 V6
Do you smell exhaust gas in the coolant? What does the oil look like?
If the head gasket has blown you will most definitely need to have the head skimmed.
If you are going to do the valves it makes no sense in just doing one bank. The you will need to pull the other cylinder head as well. I also don't know how much improvement you are going to gain by just doing the valves without doing other steps to improve the flow of gas such as the exhaust.
Have you replaced the thermostat?

2005 model. 350 000km on the clock.
Yes, you can smell the exhaust gas in the coolant now, initially not. As mentioned, the temp never moved nor was it ever without water in the radiator.

Re: the unthinkable has happened to my 4.0 V6
I've done a few 4.0 v6 headgaskets, quite a big job, it's easier to remove the engine and do it on the stand. It was not neccesary to skim, only use genuine parts.

Ek het al twee gedoen wat minder as 150000 k opgehad het en albei einaars het gese die voertuie het nooit warm geword nie, die "header" bottel het net begin voller raak.

Hoppy, was die head nog reg op die twee wat jy oorgedoen het? Volgens wat ek google kry lyk my die gasket is geneig om by silinder 6 te blaas.

Re: the unthinkable has happened to my 4.0 V6
James laat hulle net die heads check met 'n straight edge.....
Ek het nou net dieselfde fout gemaak.... bakkie het nie warm geword nie, head gaskets het nie eers geblaas nie toe reken ek dis onnodig om die heads te laat skim.
Lang storie kort te maak - Nadat ek 'n nuwe head gasket ens ingesit het moes ek alles weer oor doen - 4 weke en (nog) R2000 later loop hy nou eers.
Maak eerder seker van daai heads!

Re: the unthinkable has happened to my 4.0 V6
Must say, after 350 000km that engine looks brand new inside. Pistons look great so does everything else.
Head gasket has no visible blow-out and heads look great. Will send it off to engineering shop to check and skim as well as check valves.
Only bad news was clutch also needs to be replaced (I was sort of expecting that)...so while everything is out I suppose that is the prudent thing to do.

Re: the unthinkable has happened to my 4.0 V6
After playing in some muddy water two weekend ago, my 4l V6 also started overheating due to blocked radiator (and eventually discovering a hole in the radiator whilst washing it - But that is another story). Reason for mentioning this, my Temp Gauge also did not rise anything significant, or for that matter did not show anything higher than normal?!?
Water in the radiator and overflow bottle boiled, but the Temp Gauge was a steady normal just below half, exactly where it always sits!
Is this normal and should the temp gauge not warn you earlier? Can the gauge be tested or anything?

Re: the unthinkable has happened to my 4.0 V6
The temp gauge will only go up once the radiator is empty or not circulating any water at all.
Anyway, motor is open and heads look great. In fact, visually, head gasket looks fine (must be a minute crack/leak).
Head will get skimmed in any case. And to add to my woes, clutch also need to be done (got a Luk set at R3500).
I suppose the R10k coming my way is not too bad for 350 000km. Should be good for another 350 000 then.

die engine is andersins 100%. Na 350 000km lyk daai pistons splinternuut (en ek het 'n swaar voet).
Ek gaan die rook uit die een ry en op 1 000 000 sal weer 'n V6 koop

Re: the unthinkable has happened to my 4.0 V6
Die v6 motor is uitstekend. Onthou, die head gasket kos maar R600...die probleem is die labour. Jy moet die hele motor lig.
My v6 is sonder uitsondering vir afgelope 350 000 gediens elke 10 000. goeie olie gebruik en noudat die motor oop is het die mechanic ook uitgewys dat hy kan sien ek het hom mooi onderhou.
maar nou ja, sh*t happens, buitendien, as dit 'n diesel was, was ek in vir vier keer meer...
So R10k vir nuwe clucth en nuwe head gasket met valves weer mooi oorgedoen is nie sleg nie...

Re: the unthinkable has happened to my 4.0 V6
Just an update:
V6 back at home jeeehhaaa
Total bill R13551 and this included:
Head skimmed and completely recoditioned (including valves and valve stems)
New head gasket
New clutch and bearing
Complete service inluding spark plugs
New engine mounting (one was broken)
Goes like a train, always
So I think we are set for another 350 000km

Het 'n Sachs kit by Goldwagen gekoop vir my 3.0 D4D. Was 'n special vir R3100. Mag dalk nog aan wees.

Re: the unthinkable has happened to my 4.0 V6
Goeie middag. Ek gaan my kompressie die naweek nagaan. My V6 auto word ook warm onder vrag, andersins loop hy soos stroop. Het radiators skoon gemaak en getoets. Ons vermoed nou dat hy nie in die water in baas nie maar in die silinder se rigting. As die kompressie toets iets snaaks wys, kan net een head gedoen word of moet altwee. Hy het seker 3 keer in 2 jaar warm geword, seker niks om oor te worry nie, maar dit sit altyd in my agter kop. Nou nou moet ek n vriend se Ford of iets sleep en ek kannie.

Re: the unthinkable has happened to my 4.0 V6
Ek sal altwee doen, twee nuwe skoene loop baie beter as net 1
Dit is baie werk en die koste om die 2de 1 te doen sal nie baie meer wees nie

+1 en ek sal die termostaat ook vervang terwyl die verkoeler middel gedrein is.
