It was definately the head gasket that was the problem but luckily it wasn&#8217;t over pressurising. I decided to give K-Seal a go as it had been recommended to me by a friend. Before purchasing I rang K-Seal and spoke with Colin who was very helpful and gave me advice on the best way to use the product but did warn me that Vauxhalls were sometimes a problem and that K-seal might not work. He very kindly offered a full refund if K-Seal didn&#8217;t work for me.<br \/>\nI purchased K-Seal Ultimate as I wanted the best chance of it working and also some new coolant (although this isn&#8217;t strictly neccessary as it will work with any type of coolant in the system but if it did fix it at least it would have new coolant!). I drained the system right down and then refilled with K-Seal into the header tank and then coolant afterwards to flush it into the system.<br \/>\nThe engine was run up to full operating temperature until the cooling fan cut in and then allowed to cool; I did this a couple of times. I wasn&#8217;t entirely sure if the fix had worked and on inspection noticed that quite a bit of the K-Seal was still in the header tank. I drained some of the system down and then used it to flush the K-Seal back in from the header tank so I knew all the product was in the engine (Very important). I ran it up a couple of times more and then took it for a drive, about 40 miles. On returning it didn&#8217;t seem to have used any coolant so it looked as if it had worked. I needed to do a long journey so decided to risk using the car. After a 220 mile run to London I checked to coolant and not a drop had been used!!! I have since used the car on a regular basis without it using any more coolant. Many thanks to Colin &amp; K-Seal.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/uk.trustpilot.com\/review\/stage.kseal.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-17883 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/stage.kseal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Trustpilot-Review-MB-300x134.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"134\" srcset=\"https:\/\/stage.kseal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Trustpilot-Review-MB-300x134.jpg 300w, https:\/\/stage.kseal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Trustpilot-Review-MB.jpg 595w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Having had a Vauxhall Corsa (Old 1997?) that had been using coolant for a while I finally decided to do somethiong about it.
