Default 1.8T engine question

I have a question specifically for those of you who know a good deal about the 1.8T engine.

What is the quality of head gaskets on this engine. Do they blow often and under what circumstances or mileage?

Thanks!

swedish is right i have never seen one blow a head gasket they are a bi metalgasket
if you are having overheating problems you cant figure out it is most likely your waterpump they have plastic impellers that brake off and wont pump water
