Hypothetical......

Just a hypothetical question.........how long should the GTA head gaskets last for ?

My GTA has just clocked up 120K and I’m just wondering if I should expect some head gasket problems / failure in the near future.

I've never heard of PRV head gaskets habitually failing, though they do get less tolerant to overheating as they get older.

Lee's right, worry about it if it happens.
