The SAAB headgasket initially looked like the condensation (which actually did appear on our first cold snap) but symptoms persisted. It turned arctic in MN over a month ago. Finally a sudden coolant loss with rough idle and valve noise signified an internal gasket failure. Compression test confirmed it.
The VW ran fine, but oil was completely milky and the oil fill cap was caked with about 1/2 inch of coolant whipped cream. Apparently was a seeping gasket. Dealer still has it so I don't have specific information - they manage to always find a way to call my wife and not me.
