HG Failure - Steel Seal

Post by itchy »

My HG has gone :cry:

The clutch is slipping in 4th and 5th high in the rev range as well so there's at least £1k which is about what the car is worth!

I can live with the clutch as I can be gentle with it but the HG is a different problem. If I use the turbo, the water rapidly goes down. I did 10 miles the other day and used about 2 litres! :shock:

So, decided to try this steel seal. I'm actually sitting in the car now waiting for it to do its 'magic'. I've been in here about 45 minutes so I have about 15 minutes left.

I thought I'd start a thread and give some feedback, good or bad, about it and update the thread over time incase anybody uses the search function.

Has anybody else tried it?

Thanks,

Nick.
