Significant bent valve scenario. Owner wants new good quality head (@ lowest price, of course!), or reliable rebuilt unit. Any ideas? TIA

CoolAirVw... thanks for the tips.

Had an informative & helpful discussion with Frank yesterday evening. It sounds like he's really dialed in to the TDIs' issues & wants to take good care of his customers. Will probably go with his services for a rebuild; at least I've passed that recommendation on to the car's owner(who loves his Jetta TDI, but is not mech. experienced). Thanks.
