Smile Volvo v40 D2 (Nov 2013) exact same issue

Hi, I am currently having the same issue as both of you have had. My car is 2013 1.6 engine v40 d2.
First of all I started with loss of heat in car, leading to engine overheating warning light, engine coolant pressured and risen to top of tank. Had it in garage, could not see any obvious issues with water pumps, head gasket etc so had it vacuumed and went on my way. All fine for few days, then same again. Pipe was air locked. Had this sorted, went on my way, happened again. Had thermostat replaced.
Now I’m having the opposite issue which is that I’ve had to top up my coolant 3 times in last couple of weeks.
Can either of you advise on what ultimately happened with your v40s? I have been advised to take to Volvo which I can not afford. Any advice or info very much appreciated!
Thanks
