I dont know much about cars and my 2012 hyundai santa fe had been overheating due to a leak. I watched this video this morning and did exactly what he said and so far my car is fine. I will be watching more videos of his to help myself out. Im a 30 year old woman and would love to learn more about cars. Thank you for this video!!!

I'm extremely happy with K Seal. Lately I've been adding a gallon of antifreeze every day. Always puddles under the 2003 dodge caravan. I'm sure would have been expensive to fix so I tried k seal last night. Within at least 10 minutes of using k seal, it seemed to stop the major leak. I drove it for about an hour after adding kseal. Parked it an checked it later on. NO LEAKS. YAY!!!!

SAVED me $800! I own a 08 retired Police Crown Vic 155K miles. My car developed the somewhat common expensive to repair, slight coolant leak at the intake manifold. I was looking at about a $800 repair as everything must come off and a new manifold is required. Knowing my car may not be worth a $800 repair my shop suggested I try a stop leak. I have never had any luck with any stop leak but I started researching and the reviews look good with K Seal and the fact that on the bottle suggest If the leak can be stopped, it will be a permanent stop! That statement sold me to at least try the K Seal. I used one bottle of this K Seal in the large 4.6 V8 coolant reservoir tank and the leak 100% stopped. I thought about a month later that now I had the leak stopped a good test would be to have the coolant system flushed and filled with clean water / antifreeze but no stop leak and I truly expected the leak to return but no, now almost 2 years and even after flushing the system I have ZERO coolant leaks! VERY GOOD STUFF! I will never use anything but K Seal. Saved me $800 and is holding up 2 years strong! I'm 100% sold on this product! And to think, I almost paid the $800!

I had a leak in my 2000 C5 Corvette. My mechanic recommended it. I poured it in after following the directions and it stopped the leak in about 5 minutes on the top of my radiator. I took the Vette out the next day and put about 100 miles on it. Came home pulled in the garage and checked for the leak and it was gone. Everything where the leak was is dry. This products works. Since it worked.so well on the C5 I put a bottle in my 2006 X5 BMW. This product saves me a bundle. Good luck.

So I just went to Walmart. Bought the last thing of K-Seal. Shook it up. Cold engine btw. Opened reservoir, poured in the reservoir plastic tank, poured more coolant. Ran it on idle for about 15 minutes with heater on full blast. Then drove around with heater on blast for about another 30 minutes. Streets & highway, got up to like 90 speed. Came home no more leak. Of course some coolant leaked out before the seal became closed. Gonna top it off tomorrow & see if it leaks. So far so good. 2001 Grand Marquis, 183k miles btw. Will give weekly/monthly updates. This is my main KZfaq page so I’ll respond guys.

I've never used this product, but one I have used for over 35 years is Bars Leak. If the one you used fails, use Bars Leak. Only difference is you warm up vehicle before adding. Once coolant starts circulating you add it in. I've never had it not work. Thanks for the video. This product looks to be a good one also.

It worked for me, I took my truck to a mechanic to have the intake manifold gasket replaced for an air leak and rough idle, the mechanic replaced it but sprung a leak and basically told me i was screwed so I went to pick up my truck and on the way I bought some k seal, Drove it home which was about a half hour ride and it fixed my leak and the mechanic said it was screwed, lol. I took it on a long ride on the freeway and around town and it ran perfect so I would recomend this to anyone as a option before going into costly repairs

My first time using it!! This past Saturday I drove my 2014 Prius from Chicago to Texas 16 hours non stop, only gas a go! Yes I was super scared because it was a long trip and I can tell you that this K-seal works great!! Stop and don’t listen to other videos because I watch like 10 videos and some get scared lol but don’t be afraid just do it trust me this safe me $2500 to swap another engine!! Recommend to drive your car few miles in the highway don’t just put it and let it seat because it might not work!! Shake the bottle for at least 1 minutes just to be in the safe side!! I ONLY USE A HALF BOTTLE AND STOP MY PROBLEM. I drove over a 11 hundred miles and yes my car is in Texas with no issues! NOW I CANNOT PREDICT WHATS COMING NEXT BUT SO FAR THE CAR IS FINE 👍🏼💪🏽

Debating on using this. Just did a headgasket job. Head was resurfaced and overhauled at a machine shop. Deck had slight warpage, but within manufacturers specs. Machine shop declared I'd be fine. I thought about using that copper spray sealant just in case, shop advised me not to. That the MLS will seal the slight warpage. But they were wrong. I got coolant seeming from the side of the head. Most likely it's coming from the block. I don't have the time or the funds to tear it all down again. I just may have to try this stuff.

READ THE INSTRUCTIONS!! I didn’t shake the product up before using dumped about half of it in my coolant until it started getting thick before I realized I never shook it up. I added some antifreeze to the bottle and shook it up. I pour the rest in there and let the car run for 35 mins. No more leaks.

You are absolutely correct. It is a sealer and it's exactly what it does it seals. It could clog up the heater core and other passageways as well if a large amount is used. These types of additives should be used as an emergency basis only if you are low on cash and need to get by for some time want to stuck somewhere and need to get home etc... however I've used it quite often over the years and never encountered an issue

I've used it for a few applications and Each time it has worked for me period. However, it's hard to say on much larger leaks. If corn is flowing through it, then the casio should create enough blockage to get you home. If it is a rather small leak period I have yet to test on larger leaks.. I guess the bigger question is. Is your water pump just leaking From a gasket seal And still properly Moving The coolant through the system ? If you absolutely need to make the trip, I would suggest just bringing some extra coolant with you And keeping an eye on the temperature. But from my past experience the k seal has work every time

It's really hard to tell. It may work it may not. The shaking is an important step. It's kind of like coffee and sugar if you put the sugar in the coffee without stirring it you won't really taste the sugar too much it will just go to the bottom same goes for chocolate milk if you were to put chocolate in milk without stirring it it doesn't really form into chocolate milk. When you poured the container in did everything come out of it or was there a thick substance still on the bottom of the container?

I can't say that I am 100% certain if the antifreeze is a activator for this stuff or not I do not believe it is I think you will be okay with adding it just to the water itself. Everybody's situation is different whether this stuff works or not however for my test on two occasions it worked great I have heard stories with other people that said it did not work for them and judging by some of the comments here it has been pretty effective for other people as well.

Sounds to me that it's either a very large hole in the radiator or possibly a bad or loose hose. I'm not too sure about adding a second bottle. Maybe one of the viewers can chime in on this and see what their experiences with adding multiple bottles however it's always risky when you add even just one bottle. Before I add the second bottle I would certainly try to see if you can locate the leak first.
