ian_s:
I need to get the cylinder head on my VW Polo reconditioned, but i dont know anywhere to get it done.
Does anyone have any recomendations for businesses in and around the derby area?

Does it need skimming or a full overhaul, valves etc
Sooty:
There is a place in Buton that did a great job on my 300 tdi head.
ian_s:
unfortunately, it wasnt the cylinder head at all.
i've broken a piston ring, which has scored the bore and wrecked that piston.
so its gotta be bored out and a liner put in.
£900 thats gonna cost me, but thats basically gonna be a rebuilt engine.
new big end shells, new main shells, new rings throughout and a top end overhaul.

Ouch :shock: :(
