I'm assuming (careful) that you mean the sealant you need to do the repair
correctly,and not just a quick fix? If so, the only sealant to be relied
upon is the stuff that comes with the VW gasket sets. You need to
disassemble the engine (and perform many other operations) to do this
correctly. I would not recommend anyone put Bar's Leaks or any other sealer
of this type in their coolant.
