Hi guys, thanks for all the help so far! What I was wondering is, what sort of price am I looking at to have the head off, decoked, valves bedded, new gaskets etc, new cambelt & rebuild? 2.0 T4 2001. I wouldn't mind doing it myself, if I could get help & advice so I don't screw it up! Many thanks

If you can afford it i would go down the route of swopping your block for this......http://www.vpcuk.org/forums/showthread.php?t=36107

Or just buy a regular block from a breakers. Probably works out cheaper than the head route, you can get resonable ones for about £300-£400.

[quote=gmain1967;395594]Are you on commission or something?!!!![/quote] Lol...no but i cant belive an engine of this spec at the price asked has not been snapped up by one of you T4 lads, if it was a 5 pot it would have gone in under 5 mins lol. It's 3 grands worth of nearly new fully forged engine for 900 quid!!!!
