Title: Hello All
Post by: shammster on 10 June 2009, 21:44:58

Another newbie here.
In the middle of changing the head gaskets on my 2.5 Auto CDX estate.
What a pig of a job!

Well overdue (160k), water jacket has completly rotted the gaskets out into two pieces, inner rings and outer edge.

Never leaked water though, just oil out the back of the left head.

Steve.
