Hey guys,
Just joined yesterday and already have hit misfortune.
Just been informed by the garage that my head cylinder is scrap on my B5 1.8T A4!
I have the AA repair cover and hope that it assists me with this but even at that the cost will be over and above any assistance they give me, if even the maximum.
So need a bit of advice from you guys. My options are apparently to;
Can anyone offer me any advice with this or point me in the right direction to obtain a second hand head from a reliable source? I am in Belfast.
Thanks for any help.

So need a bit of advice from you guys. My options are apparently to;
- Put a second hand engine in the car - which would costs £450 then approx £500 labour
- Get a second hand engine and strip the head from it and put it in the car instead of an engine overhall - same cost for engine but around £300 labour
- Source a second hand head from a reliable source
Can anyone offer me any advice with this or point me in the right direction to obtain a second hand head from a reliable source? I am in Belfast.
Thanks for any help.
