Head Gasket Repairs

The head gasket acts as a seal between two parts of your car’s engine – the engine block, which houses the pistons and cylinders, and the cylinder head where you’ll find components such as valves and spark plugs.

The head gasket sits in between these engine parts and ensures that no coolants or oils leak into the wrong places. It plays a vital role in stopping the engine from overheating but it does a hard job and can occasionally blow.

You may not realise at first that your head gasket has blown so signs to look out for are:

• white smoke coming out of the exhaust
• the engine overheating
• milky-looking engine oil caused by coolant leaking and mixing with the oil.
