Frequently Asked Questions
What causes head gasket failure?
Overheating is the most common cause — the excessive heat warps the cylinder head, breaking the gasket seal. Low coolant, faulty thermostats, blocked radiators, and failed water pumps can all lead to overheating.
Is it worth repairing a blown head gasket?
It depends on your car's value. The repair typically costs £800-£1,500+ for a standard car. If your car is worth less than twice the repair cost, it may not be economical. For newer or higher-value vehicles, it's usually worth repairing.
