I posted previously about a getting billed for a new Headgasket that didn't look like it was installed. I want to nail this sucker, but I gotta have my ducks in a row before I can put the boot in, and I'd really appreciate your help...
Prevailing opinion is that I have to strip the head again and check the gasket for wear and tear as well as serial numbers / OEM part etc...
The garage that supposedly did the work quoted a part number for the head gasket set as -362440920. When I google this I get to a europarts web page, complete with a piccy below. Now is this part number the audi OEM part number or the europarts number - anyone able to say?
Also I took a photo of the bits of the HG that stick out - does this look like it's been changed 9 months ago or an original factory fit? Do you think it would stick?
The new gasket is the one from the euro parts site...
