Get a great-value Head Gasket Repair with Who Can Fix My Car.
As always a really professional service which gets the job done right.
Very honest and friendly garage. Cannot recommend more highly.
Good, straight talking and reliable time keeping. Job completed succesfully - however, ended up paying more than I had hoped but given clear reasons why (whole electric window motor had to be replaced as an integrated unit even though only part of it was broken/malfunctioning)
Great work, very competitive price
Excellent service, from collection to completion and car delivery, everything went smoothly without any issues.
Brilliant! Quick and friendly!
Karl and his team provided an excellent service. My timing chain needed replacing which is a common fault with the mini coopers. I got my car back today and its purring like a kitten. I would throughly recommend Eagle Autos the price of the repair was extremely reasonable considering the work involved. Thank you.
Eagle Autos is friendly, efficient and charges fairly. When I asked for advice on some separate mechanical issues they were very helpful. I would not hesitate to go back there.
Very helpful and good guidance given on the cost of the repair and advising me on the options i have and what to do next, i didn't go through with the repair as it wasn't only the dent that needed repairing but also my engine which was worth the same amount it would cost to buy a new car.
Slightly pricier that the other offers, but I got a professional, non-pushy service, and didn't end up paying much more as I normally do with cheaper ones.
Great job. Came to my house which made life so simple. Would definitely use again.
great service

Lee was able to fit his visit around my availability and arrived on time. All work was carried out very efficiently and I was able to see the old cambelt that was removed. the The whole job was done in around 2 hours and the car ran fine afterwards. I would not hesitate in recommending Lee and will be in touch if we need any more jobs doing. The whole process ran very smoothly with no dramas or surprises.
Yes I would recommend them , Sadie lady I spoke to first was very helpful And kept me up to speed on how the car was going , ok the final price was higher but they have to add on vat , and in a Kia Sedona I know it’s not easy job to do a cam belt and water pump , was in couple days extra due to unfor seen things at the time , also Adam the mechanic explained to me about what needed to be done , too top it off had phone call this morning 7/2/19 to ask if all was ok
Very pleased with the service I received today from this garage and will come back again in the year! Great advice and honesty with my diesel leak feel much safer on the road, Thanks again Adam !

Absolutely brilliant Garage. How had I not found these guys before??? They saved me £1500 on a head gasket replacement that was NOT necessary. 100% honest, trust worthy and professional. I can't recommend this garage highly enough. Junior, you are an Angel. Thank you so much for keeping me informed every step of the way. As a female customer, it's important to find a mechanic you can trust. You really looked after me and my car is purring like a kitten. I wont be going anywhere else in future, you have gained yourself another loyal customer!

A head gasket is effectively a seal which is essential for maintaining the temperature and integrity of a car engine. It's a part responsible for sealing pressure within the engine as well as the distribution of oil and coolant.
Every time you turn on your engine the head gasket has to operate within very high temperatures and pressures, which is exactly what it is designed to do. The engine of your car needs to be cooled constantly as it relies on combustion for power and the head gasket is the core component in performing this job.
If the head gasket is damaged, the engine will quickly overheat and serious damage will be caused. Overheating in the engine of your car will lead to a loss of compression, the mixing of oil, water, coolant as well as a reduction in lubrication.
The head gasket is a very complex piece of equipment and so a variety of materials are needed to build it. It has to be able to withstand and function normally at extreme temperatures and pressure, it also needs to be resistant to all of the chemicals and oils which rush around your car engine.
As a result, each gasket from one car to the next is different as the demands of each engine are unique. Car manufacturers like Ford, Vauxhall and BMW spend millions of pounds every year in the research and development of head gaskets to help manage the pressure and cooling of engines.
Unfortunately, if you need a head gasket repairing, it will be on the more expensive side. However, if you follow the advice below you can learn how to recognise problems with your gasket before something serious happens.
There are other signs to look out for but unless you are a trained mechanic it will be difficult to spot them which is why it is so important that you have your car checked if you suspect there is an issue.
As mentioned above, if a head gasket blows, it can be a costly repair for you as a huge increase in temperature throughout the engine could very easily cause a range of other issues.
If you need a head gasket repair or if you think you might have an issue with the unit, it is vital that you pay attention to the issue, if you ignore the signs above and the gasket blows while you are driving this could cause serious threat to your safety.
A blown head gasket repair can be quite costly for any driver, no matter what car you drive. There is no easy head gasket fix and so you will need to get an experienced mechanic to take a look. The scale does vary for a head gasket repair when looking at different card brands. For a Mercedes, pricing is over £700 on average whereas for a Fiat the price is around £355 on average.
