Leon 0 Posted May 10, 2006 Report Share Posted May 10, 2006 Sixteen new valves and maybe a no.2 or 3 piston for good measure nice buck though. Once its put back together get it done every forty thousand or it'll happen again. Nice buck though Quote Link to post

I still havent heard from the garage yet about how bad it is but I have been told it might be cheaper to get a new car :realmad: The belt didnt snap but some other part sheared off Quote Link to post
FOXHUNTER 5,021 Posted May 12, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2006 Well i have had the report back from the garage and all 16 valves were f****d. The bill is £500 which is bad enough but I thought it would be more , but I know nothing at all about motors. Quote Link to post
