The beading of the gasket on the MG-R style ones will fail eventually. Nothing can be done to avoid that but i think alot of gaskets that fail prematurly are due to neglect of the coolant system.

well i think age is certainly a factor as well yeah, but agree most ones i see the rads are rotton, or fans not working, or systems been leaking, not really the gaskets fault at all
