Check spark plugs for white or black stuff on the electrodes (this could mean inner antifreeze or oil leakage due to a small head crack, a worn HG or a defective valve stem seal). Check for coolant and/or oil excessive consumption: this could mean a leak somewhere and the need to have HG fixed. Pay attention: oil leaks could arise from a seized turbocharger unit (from which white or black smoke during car run).
I've read that just Head bolts retorquing sometimes helped.
Sorry for three posts: too fast finger!
