Less than 50k after getting head gaskets fixed, they went again.

Head gasket leak. It starts with engine overheating, so when it happens just get rid of the car cuz it's not even worth the money. It's very difficult to find mechanic who wants to replace head gasket and to find new engine for replacement, it takes time too..
