No, but I am considering a second S2 in Avant flavour as our family car...

Will have to watch that there is not bits in the cylinders ...have seen guys put adapters on to hoovers were it is a pipe that slips past the spark plug hole and they suck up all the filings and crap that has fallen in (raise the piston up to top before doing this)

By the looks of the pic you need to replace cam cover gasket and coils leads to spark plugs

Nice car and love the wheels given me an idea with the BK alloys i have in my spare room

Thanks, glad you like it...

I think I am better off changing the whole head, dont want to risk anything..

I havent had the time to check out www.timesert.com properly yet, but Ill defenetly look into it before making up my mind on what to do...

In the meantime If someone hears about someone wanting to sell a ABY/ADU head, please let me know
