*Head gasket replacements will be completed the same day as we carry a spare cylinder head with us which we exchange with your cylinder head if it requires skimming. If your cylinder head cannot be skimmed/re-fitted there is a £150 extra charge for a non VVC replacement cylinder head, and a £250 extra charge for a replacement VVC cylinder head. VVC head skimming with valve removal is £75, non-VVC head skimming is £35 if required.

 

However, you will be consulted before work continues if this is the case. We will also advise if other parts need changing eg: Alternator belt, Power Steering Belt, Cam Cover Gasket etc, we do keep these on board with us and supply them at cost during a head gasket replacement (no extra fitting fees) if you agree to have them replaced at the same time, if you do not, then an advisory will be listed on your invoice. (Invoices are usually sent within 7 days of the work being completed, if you do not receive your invoice within 7 days, please email us your booking details to chase this up, as sometimes we do get a little busier than normal and invoice time scales can vary when this happens.)

 

Please be aware, that if once the cylinder head has been removed, there are any signs of engine damage that would result in the head gasket repair being unsuccessful (due to engine block face pitting / damaged pistons / low liner heights), then the vehicle will be left as it is (with the cylinder head removed) and a £110 strip down labour and diagnostics fee will be charged plus travel costs, as it is against company policy to put a vehicle back together that would result in an unsuccessful repair. Further work can be re-arranged for a later date if you wished for the repairs to be completed with the extra parts required (replacement engine block / pistons, liner shims etc).

 

Furthermore, if you do have any issues with our work, or in the instance that you are unhappy with the service you receive then please contact us and give us the opportunity to put this right, which we will be more than happy to do. We thrive on customer satisfaction and our customers happiness means everything to us. Be sure that you can have genuine peace of mind, and satisfaction with our work. Give us a try! You won't be disappointed! We also do head gasket replacements on the Diesel L-SERIES and the T-series engines too. Please call for a quote.
