T25 Waterboxer head gasket sealant

**nooge** · July 21st 06, 01:19 PM posted to rec.autos.makers.vw.watercooled

hello, i'm just replacing head gasket which failed - it's got a split
in it and poured all the water out. I wanted to buy OEM parts to
replace but my local VW centre says they are all discontinued.

Any advice on good supplier for the rubber gasket and which sealant I
should use for gasket and also the head nuts - both VW official types
mentioned in haynes manual are no longer available either!

I am in the UK.

thanks
