   Any help is welcome.
   2002 VTS on 5000 miles!!!
   
   ive got water coming out the exhaust, a slight oil leak from the cyl head gasket join area and it overheats far too easy for my liking?
   
   its been suggested that a coolant block somewhere in the system could cause all of this but im not sure? if someone has an opinion please post a comment?

   sounds like your head gasket has bit the dust, take the oil filler cap off and check for a whitish mayonaisse like substance.
   
   your car should still be under warranty take it back to citreon and abuse them
   
   also some water coming out of the exhuast is normal
