Head gasket leak

Recommended Posts

Hi Guys, just noticed a little pink trace of G12+ coming out of the head gasket by the induction pipe. It doesn't seem to be leaking very much(no leak at all during tick over and no real sign of much fluid gone from the tank) but leaking it is. Do iI try sealing it with chemical metal or should I try leak seeker.Or should I start saving for a new gasket.

All help much appreciated.

Charley.

If its starting to go on the outside there is no telling what state it is in through its total section. When my head was stripped to do the gaskets it was only leaking a little externally, but internally it was letting water into the cylinders.

 

VW suggest only getting it done when it fails on the other hand........
