Hi all, I just bought my first MB diesel (83 240d) and, well, I'
m starting think that I may have got hosed. I was digging through all the records and receipts and I found a receipt from a shop that says: "work order: advise customer - possible blown head gasket." The mechanic's note says "constant bubbles in the radiator, indicating a blown head gasket."

This was from 6/10/12. I can't find any receipts from after this date. I've been trying to call the guy that sold me the car all day but he isn't answering and the shop won't be open until Monday.

Here's the thing though, I've been driving the car for over a week and it has absolutely no symptoms of a blown head - the engine power seems normal;there's no smoke; it doesn't overheat; the oil seems to be a normal color and there are no bubbles on the dipstick.

Is it possible to have a blown head and have no symptoms? Is it possible that the mechanic that checked it out was just wrong? Am I just being optimistic?
