Headgasket repair fluids - anybody tried these?


Recommended Posts

So the question came up cause Im looking at a 92 Audi 100cs Quattro avant with a possible blown head gasket.

I was doing some web research and came across these 2 repair fluids.

Was wondering if anybody has any experience with these or any other type of fluid fixes.

agreed, typically just a band-aid.

 

Our local Subaru dealer doesn't even recommend the Subaru-made additive for the 2.5L problem because it tends to not only "solve" the leak but also clog up the system (e.g. radiator, heater core, and other small passages).

 

The band-aid fixes are reserved for the shady who are trying to unload a vehicle real quick that they know has a problem.
