VW Cylinder Head Gasket Set - Elwis 021198012A

Product Information

A cylinder head gasket seals the cylinder head to the engine block. A head gasket performs a few important functions. For starters, a head gasket seals the combustion chamber of the engine allowing the engine to create proper compression. In addition, head gaskets seal oil and coolant passages between the cylinder head and engine block which prevents fluids from mixing or entering the combustion chamber.

• Overheating engine
• Low cylinder compression
• External oil or coolant leak
• White smoke from exhaust
• Bubbles in radiator or expansion tank
• White/milky engine oil
