    I know there was a thread about this before but can't find any updates on how anyone has got on with using it? (If there is please delete this)

    So has anyone ever used this to fix any head gasket problems?

    Is it any good and how long does it last?

    Went to motor shop today and his ordering it for me €40 so worth a shot.

    Used it on the wifes Corolla Verso at the begining of the year when it seemed to be using coolant. Level has stayed pretty much bang on since then. Kildare to Dublin daily and drove it over to Scotland and around the highlands for a week. Seems to have worked very well.

    Used it on a friends Astra and made no difference at all. Head had to be done.

    I think if its at the very early stages of gasket failure stealseal can save it, obviously cant fix a warped head though. For 40 quid its worth a shot im my opinion.

    Thanks for that. Think the damage could already be done oil is mixing wit the coolant but only that and I'm loosing oil at a slow pace but still. Am going to try it anyway and hope it gets me a few more months. Like ya say worth the €40.

    Another poster that's used it here. Engine still strong 40k miles later (car scrapped)

    Worth it if it hasn't gone too far
