Product Details

Fel-Pro is known for making gaskets that work well in real-world repair situations, and this PermaTorque engine cylinder head gasket set is no exception. If you're working on the top end of your 2003-2005 Volkswagen Beetle, Golf (2004-2006), or Jetta (2004-2005), this set is built to give you a reliable seal.

What makes these gaskets stand out is their design for imperfect sealing surfaces. They use proprietary materials and unique sealing innovations, including a graphite or reinforced fiber facing with steel armor for strength. Plus, they come with a nonstick anti-friction coating that helps seal minor scratches on the cylinder head or block. The steel core construction also means you generally don't need to retorque the head bolts after installation, which can save you some time and hassle.
