How much of a job is changing a head gasket on an 10 year old astra?

HAVE WORKED ON OLDER CARS BUT IS A 10 YEAR OLD ASTRA MUCH DIFFERENT|||not really harder, just a little more technical and precise, the old vauxhall engines were considered safe because the pistions wouldn hit the valves if the cambelt wasnt right but the newer the engines design the more acurate it has to be to get the power it is supposed to develop so if you get it wrong it bends all the valves as they mangle into the pistons|||Most are quite easy


single ohc piece of cake


16valve %26amp; diesels


a little harder


best wishes|||no not really its quite is easy if it doesnt need to be skimmed, u literally take the head out of the engine, on astras it is right in the centre underneith the rocker cover. then either just change it or it will need to be skimmed and in that case can be quite an expenisive job..


hope this helps
