So the question came up cause Im looking at a 92 Audi 100cs Quattro avant with a possible blown head gasket.

I was doing some web research and came across these 2 repair fluids.

Was wondering if anybody has any experience with these or any other type of fluid fixes.

bad idea, generally a band-aid and a bad one at that. if you want a cheap daily driver, don't really care how long it lasts or problems it may have, then tear it up.

agreed, typically just a band-aid.

 

Our local Subaru dealer doesn't even recommend the Subaru-made additive for the 2.5L problem because it tends to not only "solve" the leak but also clog up the system (e.g. radiator, heater core, and other small passages).

 

The band-aid fixes are reserved for the shady who are trying to unload a vehicle real quick that they know has a problem.

Stay tuned, I MAY have news on this.

 

Just trying to keep it on the road 2 more days. If this works out it MAY be a "get you home" fix.
