My friend has a Passat TDI with a warped head. The big question is, whats the best course of action? It's hard to find any mechanics around here that have any experience with TDIs, other than the dealers who are all crooked. The way we see it, we have three options
- Get the head rebuilt. We have no problem with pulling and sending it somewhere, but we need to know who to send it to. We aren't going to send it to any old machine shop, we need to send it to someone with experience unwarping/rebuilding aluminum diesel heads, preferably with TDI specific experience. Can anybody name any names?
- Get a new head. Any good sources? There aren't any TDIs in the junkyards around here.
- Get a new engine. Any good sources? There aren't any TDIs in the junkyards around here.
Clues will be appreciated.
Best regards, Jeff
