Guest crasin Posted March 23, 2005 Report Posted March 23, 2005 Hi all can someone please help and advise, I have a 1996 90bhp tdi galaxy......now broke down over weekend and had to be recovered when was told was head gasket for sure so had towed to friends garage to have said work done! Had phone call today "are you sitting down" was the first words he said!Then went on to describe the damage that was done........head gasket has no problems but you have dropped a valve and its cracked the head and also damaged the piston!! not beleiving him i went to go and have a look for myself (after picking myself up from the floor) and sure enough he's right....... he's a friend as is telling me it would be easier and possibly cheaper to just change then engine.......so need to know can i fit a 110bhp engine and if so whats the physical difference as got to change engine might aswell upgrade if easy? also does anyone know of a good breakers that have an engine anywhere in the country as need 1 desperatly! many thanks crasin Quote
