Model: Peugeot 307 MK 1 - Years 2001-2009
Part: Cylinder head

This video shows how to remove and replace the cylinder head on your car. If your car is experiencing abnormal coolant consumption, one of the main causes could be damage to the head gasket. If the car has been stationary for a long time, the gasket may deteriorate, or if the engine has overheated, the gasket may fail. To replace the gasket, you need to remove the cylinder head and all associated parts; finally, take the head to be machined and before reassembling, install a new gasket specific to the engine. Remember to tighten the head with the correct torque.
