Default K-seal

I bought my C70 T5 a while back and have had a smell of burning coolant coming through the vents. I found out on here that its probably to do with the matrix. Anyway, bought some K-seal yesterday, chucked it in the header tank, drove to work, and the smells gone. Cracking stuff. Just thought i would post about it in case some people don't know about it. I'm sure most of you do.

A lot of people knock K-Seal yet I have used it on a number of vehicles over the years with tricky to fix leaks. They are all still going and it doesn't block coolant capiliaries as some claim. It's a fine powder, not an egg.
