You could have some luck with "Barsleaks" additive. I use 1/2 of the pellets and liquid and heat the mix in a microwave oven. Then, using a fork, smash the pellets up into a slurry. Remove the upper radiator hose and pour the mixture into the hose. Drive the car and allow the barsleaks to work. I have added this product to all my cars just for preventative measures. My wifes 96/850T Volvo sedan had coolant getting into the oil. I added the "Barsleaks" and saved myself the cost of 2,200 dollars. I did get the head-gasket kit and all the necessary parts for when the time comes to do the job. Using the "Barsleaks" as a preventative additive has kept me from ever replacing any heater cores and radiators. IMO!
