    Hello.
    I have a problem, I recently bought a car Opel Astra 1.7 DTI from 2000. This is the Astra 2 hatchback Comfort 5-door series.
    The problem is that it smells a lot of cold and takes a lot of coolant for 95% damaged gasket under the head, I'm going to fix it after Christmas only I do not have the slightest idea how much it can cost, maybe some of you already exchanged the gasket in this model I he knows how much it costs.
    I would like to thank you for all the helpful comments and greetings.

    You ask about the cost of replacing the gasket itself. In this case, the replacement should not cost more than PLN 200-300.

    Where are the cheap mechanics?
    The labor itself is about PLN 500
    Head gasket, gaskets for manifolds and valve cover, planning, new head bolts, valve timing, valve and guide check, valve sealants, for a large mileage for one job, I would change rings on the pistons and check the acetules. New oil and filters + radiator fluid. Lightly counting about PLN 2,000.
    If I'm wrong, correct me ...

    A lot depends on the region. In the largest cities, service prices are often twice as high as in small towns.

    For me, 1000 PLN plus minus 200.

    And in addition all seals and timing KPL. With such a job, I can give a guarantee.

    Okay, we're not gonna mess the forum with receipts I think; p

    The amount is not the most appropriate as to the quality.
