ben16v 0 Posted May 10, 2006 do i need 2 change the head gasket yet ? and also the timing chain is worn do i get them done the same time? probably if you dont want to do any damage to your engine can anyone one recomend a garage in the north west? ? awesome gti in warrington, dubsport in wigan, stealth in coventry once head gasket is replaced will it run as good as before? should do or should i part ex it for v6 4motion depends on how much you wanna spend i reckon, what you expect to sell your car for and the cost of the work hope this helps and you get your car sorted with minimal of hassle ben Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
corradovr6sc 0 Posted May 10, 2006 A chap in Stoke (http://www.stokevwspares.co.uk) did my chains. He can do them for a very competitive price: £250 labour to change the chains and clutch or about £250 including parts. He'll probably charge another £150 to do the headgasket so about £700 for everything at a guess which is a pretty good price. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
