My brothers MY97 UK car has just started blowing steam out of the exhaust,it started happening immediatly after a cambelt change.
Theres also a sign of steam and the smell of coolant coming,from what seems,under the turbo heatshield!?
Any ideas?

Sounds like the head gasget to me, a pressure check at dealers should confirm this, not a cheap job if it is this!!!!
