AndyR Posted March 6, 2022 Posted March 6, 2022 Hi Deso, I wouldn't have thought that K-seal would cause oil pressure problems, as it is for coolant leaks. Was the coolant leak coming out of engine, or mixing with the oil? I have used it in my Astra, as i thought i had a leak causing oil to get into the coolant. Not head gasket problem, as oil is not getting contaminated. I have never had the low pressure light come on due to the k-seal. Regards Andy 1 Quote
Deso Posted March 13, 2022 Author Posted March 13, 2022 Coming from the thermostat housing area it worked but 4 weeks later got the oil pressure light next day changed oil but made it worse over heated now its in for full engine rebuild 1,800 beans Quote
AndyR Posted March 13, 2022 Posted March 13, 2022 That's not good, but at least it's getting sorted. Keep us informed of what the garage find. Will be curious to know what caused it to over heat after a fresh oil change. Andy. Quote
Deso Posted March 14, 2022 Author Posted March 14, 2022 My money is on oil pick up seal some say its a vauxhall ticking time bomb such a small thing aswell but we'll see Quote
AndyR Posted June 12, 2022 Posted June 12, 2022 Hi Deso, did you get to the bottom of your oil pressure problem back in march? Quote
