yeah there is a further issue, however start small and work your way up. get the coolant system pressure tested also. Could try bleeding the coolant system but that is unlikely going to be the issue or help. 

 

are you seeing bubbles in the cooling system when the car is idling? any oily residue?

I’ve had 3 turbo falcons have this issue now and two were completely stock standard ! 

 

If you notice a fair sized cloud or puff out of the exhaust under a bootful then its definitely a head gasket unfortunately

when the hose blew she did not get hot

it's not possible that it didn't get hot and you're giving it a hard time...
