How do I know if my head gasket has blown?
The combustion gas test is the most definitive — a chemical solution placed over the coolant reservoir changes colour from blue to yellow if combustion gases (CO2) are present. GarageNation charges ₹1,500 for this test, which is deducted from the repair. White sweet-smelling exhaust smoke is the most obvious owner-visible sign.

Standard comprehensive motor insurance covers head gasket replacement only if the damage was caused by an accident or a specified peril (fire, flood). Mechanical failure from wear is not covered. Some premium insurance add-ons (engine protect, gearbox protect) do cover engine repair failures — check your policy document. GarageNation provides detailed repair reports for insurance claims.
